Highgate Cemetery

Victorian cemetery in Highgate

Victorian funerary drama on a wooded hill: ivy-clad angels, the Egyptian Avenue, the Circle of Lebanon. Take the guided West-side tour; it sells out weeks ahead.

A 25-year restoration is now underway, with a new visitor centre and café planned, so expect some works on site. The guided West-side tour is still the way in, and it sells out weeks ahead.
