In case people don't know about this, a full plan of Bishopwearmouth Cemetry, Sunderland is online (free) at the Sunderland Council website. All the surnames that can be read are plotted down with reference numbers etc. Some of the burial numbers are difficult to read but you can usually figure it out.

My pleasure, I got v excited when I saw this. But be warned - your neck may hurt as you have to tip your head on one side to read the names! My neck is covered in Tiger Balm to ease the pain

Hello christine

Had a bit of an explore round the council website and have found the page you're on and thats not the page I'm on!

Go to the home page and click on the search box in the top right hand corner. Type in "ward plans". The entry you need is the 3rd one down.
