After delivering medical devices in some hospitals around London I was driving from Kingston upon Thames to Greenwich where I rent a apartment. Because of the constant rain I not expected to discover any interesting places when I saw an old graveyard. I stopped to look around and was impressed how nature was taking over this place.
The cemetery is a site of importance for local wildlife. For that reason the grass is cut at different times during spring and summer. So grasses and wildflowers can flourish in some areas.
There are also squirrels in this cemetery. Lots of squirrels. These seem to be used to people because they are not afraid at all. The squirrel below was even posing for some pictures with my phone.
There is also an old Gothic chapel in the cemetery. A nice place to shelter for the rain.
Below are three more pictures to give a good impression of the graveyard.
I hope you appreciate this topic. If you want to visit the graveyard, this is the address:
Saint Mary's Cemetery (also named: Battersea Cemetery)
