My missus has just mentioned that my Mum has requested my assistace
soon re taking her to her Mum, Dad and Brothers grave and cleaning the
loose stones that sit on the grave (she thinks they were green at one
time).


You know, that's what I thought you meant when I saw the subject line,
but I didn't believe it until I read the posting!

I think her intention is to shovel the stones into a bag(s), take
them home to clean (not sure how she intends doing the 'cleaning'
yet).
So, before we do all that, is there anything we should consider ..
like, are there any chemicals that could be sprayed on, are we allowed
to do such ourselves, would they mind us turning up with my pressure
washer etc etc ;-)


A new bag of chippings might not cost much, especially if the plot still
has "room for more".

I started off thinking about frugal alternatives like glass chippings
from a recycling bin, but thought that might not be sufficiently

respectful.

Neat bleach will almost certainly improve them.
