The council has told Leanne to have the In The Night Garden gravestone for five-month-old baby Callum removed
A grieving mum has been told she has to remove a cartoon-themed memorial from her baby son's grave or face having it pulled down - because it isn't made of stone. Heartbroken Leanne Thompson's five-month-old son Callum tragically died in his sleep from pneumonia in April 2010.
She said: "Out of all of the graves in that yard, they've picked out a baby's grave. It does stand out because it's bright, because that's what I wanted for him. It's absolutely heartbreaking. People have been saying that it's nice but it is a bit too much, but that's just because it's colourful. "He would even fall asleep on his playmat watching Iggle Piggle. Even my dad used to say that it was the end of an era when Callum passed away because it was the end of an era for Iggle Piggle."
"They even put fences in the cemetery and there's bits and nails hanging off. You can buy grave pots and vases that are plastic. You can even buy pots for flowers from funeral homes and they are made out of pot.Leanne has until the end of September to remove the memorial but said she 'wouldn't have gone ahead' if she knew she would have this problem.
"The regulations have been in place for many years and it’s important that we treat all grave owners equally when dealing with such sensitive matters. All memorials must be installed by a registered monumental mason and comply with British Standards.
