Tombs in the churchyard of St John-at-Hackney
It is thought that a church and surrounding churchyard has been here since before the Norman Conquest. However, no records survive of any building before 1275.
The Church of St John-at-Hackney was designed by James Spiller. Work began in 1792 to the north-east of the existing church of St Augustine, which was by then too small for the rapidly increasing population of Hackney. The main structure took more than two years to complete. On 15th July 1797 the church was consecrated and dedicated to St John. In March 1798 the body of the old church of St Augustine was demolished and several of the tombs removed to the new church. The tower was kept and remains to this day.
What is especially noteworthy about the churchyard is the wonderful collection of tombs, some of which are seen here.
For a fuller account of the history of the two churches see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_St_John-at-Hackney and http://www.londongardensonline.org.uk/gardens-online-record.asp?ID=HAC039
