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.

    • Miss Robson is the last of the old school independent vets. All the chains are have seriously hiked their prices over the last few years which now makes pet ownership only possible for the wealthy few. Even with pet insurance -( which often excludes items or has ‘deductibles’ ) it is just so much money. A visit with some medication is often £150 - £200. The vets themselves are excellent. 
    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
    • Dawson Heights again  2 lifts out of order at ladlands block Christmas Eve so of course the 🛗 will not be repaired tomorrow Christmas Day or Boxing Day or when how do elderly or mothers with children and prams and food and presents get to the floors and with the 10 minutes you get to drop off  to park and not get a Pcn fine and delivery food to relatives who can’t leave their house unbelievable Southern housing does any know email address of Coe of southern housing 
    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
