Camberwell New Cemetery, London
visited August 2020
Camberwell New Cemetery (very much in the Honor Oak Park area, not Camberwell!) was opened for burials in 1927 as the old cemetery filled up. It's a working cemetery and crematorium, but the older areas from the 1920s and 1930s have some lovely memorials and are a little more wild than the modern manicured areas. It's perhaps not worth a visit on its own, but is on the Green Chain walk on a section which also takes in Camberwell Old Cemetery and Nunhead Cemetery, so be sure to have a look around, and stray off the Green Chain route while here!
