Gran’s garden in memory of late sons subject of neighbour complaints

A great-grandmother who has tended a remembrance garden in memory of her late sons was told it would be turfed after neighbours complained about it.

Pamela McLaughlan was allocated the plot in the corner of the back garden 28 years ago when she moved into the flat she shares with her husband Robert in North Lanarkshire.

The 80-year-old, who cares for her blind husband and suffers from COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), was hesitant to start gardening when she was told it was hers but eventually took to it and it became her passion.

Trust Housing Association said the organisation took action after it received “a number of complaints from residents” but it was trying to find a solution that would allow Mrs McLaughlan to keep her garden.
