Margravine Cemetery

This walk took us out of the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea and into the Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, passing several notable buildings along the way.  We arrived at Margravine Cemetery, first opened in 1869, where we wandered among the Oak and Ash Trees as wrens, robins and goldfinches flitted among the branches.  The cemetery was bombed three times during WWII. Not far from the cemetery is the pleasant neighborhood of Brook Green which we suddenly stumbled upon on our saunter.

    i just wish more people could see these pictures spectacular and on top of that if we can't be there you are taking us there with your photos. Just glad you are making the most of a depressing situation.
