- Easy RIDE: Graveyards of northern London
In a continuation of last year's smashing exploration of the big 7 Victorian cemeteries, we will explore some of the northern London cemeteries. We will start at a maybe overlooked cemetery close to home, Tower Hamlets Cemetery. Then move on to Abney Park in Stoke Newington. If the day is warm, we will stop for a swim at Hampstead Heath, and round off the day with a look through Highgate Cemetery. We will find lunch along the way.
