A.P. Ralli monument, Greek Orthodox Cemetery, West Norwood Cemetery
Decorative Italian Gothic chest tomb enclosed by an iron chain hung from hexagonal bollards. Pandia Alexander Ralli (d.1869) was a member of probably the most influential Greek family in Victorian London. Their wealth financed the building of the Greek cemetery. Grade II listed.
West Norwood Cemetery is one of the “Magnificent Seven” cemeteries founded in the early C19th to deal with the expanding population of London. It was laid out by Sir William Tite and opened in 1837. It has 65 Grade II and Grade II* listed monuments.
