The registers of St George's church record the names of all the people buried in its churchyard from 1558 to 1855. Sometime during the early part of 1854, it was decreed that no further burials could take place there "due to the churchyard being overflowing and injurious to the Public Health". The last person to be buried there was John Thompson of Frenchgate, aged 66 on 5th April 1855. After this, only five more ‘special' burials took place, these being in the church vaults.
