Turning

Autumn again - and it came pretty spectacularly in the Brompton Cemetery. This is perhaps an odd thing to admit, but this has got to be my favourite cemetery, for a couple of good reasons. It's laid out beautifully, 1 mile around the perimeter (great for a jog - which plenty of locals use it for), with the gorgeous chapel and collonaded walkway reminiscent of St Peter's in the Vatican. It also has plenty of interesting residents, as I found out when there was a tour organised for London Open House, a weekend in which you are allowed access to buildings across the city usually closed to the public - fantastic!
