Greenwich Cemetery, Eltham SE9
A view towards the entrance on Well Hall Road, a 10 minute walk straight ahead. Langbrook Road lies a 5 minute walk away behind the photographer, although there is no access out into it. Mayday Gardens - a residential street - is situated behind the tree line on the left. This Victorian cemetery is one of the largest cemeteries in London being of approximately 9.5 hectares in size (or 24 acres) and, as this picture reveals, a considerable amount of spare capacity remains available.
One of half-a-dozen weather-protection shelters is seen here although all but the one nearest the entrance to the cemetery is boarded up as an anti- misbehaviour strategy.

Greenwich Cemetery
Greenwich Cemetery was founded in 1856 by Greenwich Burial Board on a hilly site, with an entrance in Well Hall Road. At the top of the hill are the Commonwealth War Graves and the Heroes Corner and War Memorial. The panoramic views are the finest from any cemetery in London and are some of the best anywhere in London. This view looks towards the towers of Canary Wharf.
