New Publication Local Interest Nunhead Cemetery


Recommended Posts

I posted this in the classifieds, so sorry if you have already seen this.


Death in Tragic Circumstances. £9.99 plus £2.50 postage and packing. Softcover 254 pages. Available on Ebay or PM me direct.


Brand new, not for profit, book containing a selection of true stories of murder, mayhem, manslaughter and suicide, victims and perpetrators interred in London's Nunhead Cemetery between the years 1853 and 1935.


The true stories of those unfortunate men, women, children and babies, who died at the hands of others, and those tragic men and women who died by their own hand.


Sixty three stories, some illustrated with black and white pictures/photographs. A grid plan of the cemetery is included together with the Square and Grave Number of the victim/perpetrator.


The gothic Nunhead Cemetery of All Saints in London was opened for burials in 1840. Around 269,000 burials had taken place between 1840 and 1969 when it was abandoned. It was acquired by Southwark Council in 1974.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
