Acton Cemetery is divided into two by the Central line, but is linked by a footbridge over the lines. It has two chapels dating from 1895, the same date as the cemetery. Among the graves are Albert Perry, one of the 1,200 people who died when the Lusitania was sunk in May 1915, and George Temple who was a pioneer aviator. This view is in the northern part.
