Excellent pics!
Don't know but older graves tended to be a lot more ornate than they are now. Cost could be a factor, or regulations have changed and local customs would have an effect also. I find them fascinating places - my favourite is Père Lachaise in Paris, but I liked the kirkyaird in Dumfries too.
