This is a madness that should never have happened. A lady bought a cemetery lodge and has been complaining that people walk past the lodge to get to the cemetery, setting off sirens and harassing them. She's making and example of this guy and is seeking damages in court! Madness!

One of the curiosities of our older cemeteries - some have catacombs that were used by families almost like a mausoleum; while other people used them as temporary resting places. Like this example from Kensal Green Cemetery's more recent past⬇️

I had to acquire an early (1896) edition of this, the graveyard flâneur’s bible. What a fab undertaking this was! Gods bless Mrs Basil Holmes! PS she really hated Kensal Green… now there we differ. #gravedigging

The Fraud, by White Teeth Characters include the Victorian novelist William Harrison Ainsworth and his housekeeper Eliza Touchet ... real characters who now lie in Kensal Green. See Lisa Allardice's book review theguardian.com/books/2023/aug…

Splendid “Egyptian Revival” mausoleum at Kensal Green cemetery - I’m sure it would have looked even better with the original door

There's a huge & high development proposed on the south side of the canal at #KensalGreen. Its so high & dense it will crowd & cast deep shadows over much of the historic listed landscape of the cemetery. Can we get a more sympathetic low-rise development? keepkensalgreen.com
