Apology after headstones removed

-

A charity has said sorry for the removal of headstones from a cemetery at a former children’s home.

It is thought about 80 headstones were taken away from the cemetery at the Quarriers home in Renfrewshi­re sometime in the 1960s.

Senior figures at the charity have said they plan to have them put back.

The cemetery in Bridge of Weir is currently marked by a commemorat­ive plaque.
