Arnos Vale Cemetery, Bristol
After Hours tour, October 2017
On the same day I visited Arnos Vale cemetery by day I also went on a night time guided tour. These After Hours tours are run by volunteers and are very well attended - pre-booking is essential. There's a small fee (£10), but it's well worth it!
We went around by torchlight, among the memorials in the landscaped and wooded areas, as well as down to the mortuary crypt to end the tour, with a guide who was super-knowledgeable about the cemetery and about burial customs. It was very atmospheric, particularly as I was there the night before Halloween. Well worth doing if you possibly can.
