Also in What’s On and Power & Politics and Literary London and Harry Potter.

The West Cemetery is the overgrown Victorian one, and until recently could only be seen on a guided tour - Egyptian Avenue, the sunken Circle of Lebanon, catacombs, and monuments the trees have half taken back. The guides are volunteers and very good. The East side, with Marx, you can walk yourself.
