TQ2893 : New Southgate Cemetery
taken 8 years ago, near to East Barnet, Barnet, England
New Southgate Cemetery
New Southgate Cemetery was formerly known as the Great Northern Cemetery. It was opened in 1861 and like Brookwood in Surrey it had its own railway line bringing coffins direct into the cemetery via a mile-long branch, leaving the main line out of King's Cross at what was then Colney Hatch station (now New Southgate). The branch had gone by the 1880s and there is virtually no sign of it today.
This is near the northern entrance. Brunswick Park Road is just ahead with Brunswick Crescent leading off it.
