Nunhead Cemetry day....any good?


Recommended Posts

Definitely worth a visit if you've not been before. There's a beautiful derelict chapel and sometimes an old time woodman turning table legs on a lathe made from a springy tree and a bit of string, or perhaps he's a ghost.

apart from, its a great place to walk around, there usually some stalls,including i think grub and beer? im sure i remember drinking something. Best bit is the creepy small crypt that they have small ordered tours of. ie can be a queue. Some interesting names down there. You get a guided tour and questions if you wanna.

The Birds of Prey are fun too - I still have a pic of me trying hard not to look panic-stricken at the Nepalese Eagle owl perched haughtily on my wrist. It's also a bit like wandering around one of the better Hammer House of Horror sets..."The Tomb of Ligeia" perhaps?

the open day is great. as well as regular very informative tours there is a bug hunt. you find your bug in a little jar then take it to these bug expert folk and they identify it and you get a certificate.

there will be other low key craft stuff for kids as well as cakes and tea stall. and the place is really beautiful

    • We ended up getting a large garden shed for our build, it did the job and kept it after to store the garden and sports stuff. If you need off site storage, most of the storage companies do introductory offers, such as £1 for first month and its generally cheaper to book this online to avoid the admin fee - check the small print as most charge a lock fee and compulsory insurance fees. Consider how often you'll need to access your items as the cost is generally higher for more accessible storage where you can visit as you please, such as Suregard and Big Yellow, and cheaper for the companies where you fill a storage container and they take it away to a remote storage location. Hope this helps

    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Leon from Electrical Initiative Ltd did a fantastic job replacing our bathroom fan and light today. He is super responsive and easy to communicate with. He is professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Leon took the time to explain what needed doing, worked efficiently, and left everything neat and tidy. It’s rare to find someone so committed to quality work and customer satisfaction – highly recommend Leon for any electrical needs!
    • True. But I hope you aren't saying that to try and erase the situation in Gaza? Where our government is actively contributing to the genocide by selling arms and contributing to intelligence missions (via Cyprus). As well as a complete failure to meaningfully condemn
