    Brompton Cemetery is one of the Magnificant 7 Victorian cemeteries of London and is filled with thousands upon thousands of graves comprising of simple headstones to impressive mausolea, catacombs, and purportedly a time machine.

You are selling yourself short because you are allowing people all over the world to see sites that they would not be able to visit, for one reason or another.

I find graveyards calming and beautiful and would love to see more. The Brompton cemetery is one I have always wanted to visit. I love that it is such a 'living' cemetery, very much in use in so many ways. Somehow that seems just as it should be.

    I’m a Yank that is obsessed with the incredible history of the UK. I so enjoy your knowledge of history on the tours you do. My biggest bucket list item is to if not move to the UK, spend at least a year or two to immerse myself in the historical sites with my pack of dogs. I’d move there but I don’t think I can talk my son’s family into it. And it’s too far to be from my grandson. So thank you for the tours I can watch from America. Who knows if we keep sliding towards authoritarianism we might be begging to come back as commonwealth member.

    30 years ago I lived in Earls Court, my son was a few months old, in a hotel while I waited to be given a flat in East London. My partner and I were short of money so we would walk through Brompton Cemetery instead of jumping on the bus or tube to get to Fulham Road where there was a better range of shops and a market and a supermarket. I discovered that Chelsea football ground backs onto it, the walk through BC was amazing especially in the Autumn where the trees turned amber, yellow, red....it was a sight behold. I remember standing under a tree witch had turned bright yellow and I was bathed in a yellow glow. We stopped going because men were using it as a Cottaging area. We did not know what the hell was going on at the time but we would be walking through the many paths and out from behind a tree would pop out a man who would see a couple then disappear back behind the tree, it was happening consistently especially near the walls of the cemetery. . It was very surreal and scary, then a friend told me what they were doing....lol!

    I visited this cemetery ( I adore old cemeteries ) with my daughter in 2016.. we had taken a trip to London for her 14th birthday.. she wasn't impressed with the cemetery that day 😊.
    She passed away two years later, four months after her 16th birthday.

    I found a new word yesterday " Hiraeth - the link with the long-forgotten past, the language of the soul, the call from the inner self. Half forgotten - fraction remembered. Nostalgia for ancient places which we can never return. It is the echo of lost places of our souls past and our grief for them. It is is the wind, and the rocks, and the waves, and the rocks and the waves. It is no where and every where." That just about sums me up when Mystical Egypt, is mentioned. As a child I would cry because I couldn't go home to Egypt. I told people my real mum and dad would come and get one day. I feel that you Sinead, understand feelings like this ? Your video and narrative brought it all back me. Strange I should come across Hiraeth yesterday and then this morning you awakened my memories. I hope I don't sound to much like a loony 😄 Lots of love and Blessed Be always dear Sinead 💖💖

    I started out my morning watching this one. I lost both grandfathers by the age of 4. Cemeteries have never scared me. It's like visiting family. Very lovely. A glorious place to spend eternity. In the heart of London surrounded by what they loved. So many glorious tributes to loved ones. I agree about the tardus (sp?) I'm not into Dr. Who but I did recognize that shape before you mentioned it. I had to chuckle. Your stories about these people bring it to life. I do want to ask you a cemetery question. I'm psychic. I always have been. Years back I had a dream about a London cemetery, outside of town. It's up on a hill. Central London is in the distance. It has a tall black fence around it. To the left is a wide street. Directly behind it is a department store. I know it sounds weird. I took the bus into central London. Am I completely nuts or does it sound familiar?? Thanks.
