First post on here :)

Visited on a nice sunny day, which made a change. :p

The chapel is Grade II Listed, designed by William Hosking and built by John Jay, which opened in 1840.
A very simple but attractive chapel in a peaceful cemetery.

Nice set, amazing it hasn't been more chaved up.

Not sure if your aware or not, but it took me about .5 of a parsec to work out where this was so if your keeping it "secret" you might want to edit your intro a bit. But if your not, then ignore me :)

Yeah, I could have made it less obvious but it's in a very public place with care takers etc. so I think it will be fine. :)
 
My god those pics bought back memories, as a kid I lived in Highbury and had school friends who lived in Stamford Hill, I can remember, one mild summer evening in the early 1960's (I was about 14) getting in there with some friends and exploring, which also entailed getting up on the roof as well, and at one point, edging, astride, along a 'V' roof, I think we were looking for birds eggs :wideeyed:

Glad it brought back some happy memories :)
Did you get onto the roof by the spiral inner staircases? They've been removed now.
 
I absolutely love this place, and can't understand why it was allowed to go to ruin. You've really done a cracking job at capturing the atmosphere.

Yeah, the cemetery was quite busy, I wasn't the only one taking photos.

Not another plague of zombies, surely? What do we pay our taxes for?
