Galway Bay fm newsroom - There's claims that land secured for a new cemetery in Claregalway is the "completely wrong" location.

Following efforts spanning more than a decade, Galway County Council has secured land at Cregboy, near Whiriskey Refrigeration.

But a meeting of local councillors last night heard claims that it's completely unsuitable and many locals are unhappy with the site.

A public consultation period ended yesterday, and almost 30 submissions were received from the public.

Councillor Albert Dolan says he's canvassed local residents - and they're not happy.
