In this video, Jessica the Museum Guide (that’s me!) takes you on a detailed guided tour through the grim history of the London Necropolis Railway and Brookwood Cemetery, just in time for the Hallowe’en. After all, a cemetery is a sort of museum! Edit- Brookwood is South West of London, not South East. We’ll explore the history of the putrid London graveyards, a proposed ‘Pyramid of Death’ that may have been taller than the Shard, dancing on the dead at Enon Chapel, and cholera outbreaks, all of which led to the founding of the London Necropolis Railway, which carried corpses and their mourners to Brookwood Cemetery 25 miles away. We visit both Brookwood Cemetery, which is the largest in the UK, and 121 Westminster Bridge Road, where we’ll see the London terminal, which now has no visible reminders of its grisly past.
