Whenever any burial ground, incorporated or unincorporated, is being neglected so as to become a nuisance, even though said burial ground may occasionally be used for burial purposes, the court of quarter sessions of the county in which such burial ground is situated may direct that such burial ground be placed in the care of the council of the borough, the township commissioners or township supervisors of the township, under the direction and supervision of said court.
