Plans to build Britain’s biggest Muslim cemetery for 12k people slammed by locals


This is the site earmarked for Britain’s biggest ever Muslim cemetery and which has sparked huge opposition from local residents. The aerial images show the huge scale of the proposed 45-acre Memorial Garden site which would contain 12,250 burial plots, funeral parlour and prayer halls. The cemetery plan has been submitted by the billionaire Issa brothers on land near Oswaldtwistle, west of Blackburn, Lancashire, which has a population of just 10,815.
