Hampstead is one of London’s most beautiful neighborhoods. For centuries many of Hampstead’s notable residents have chosen to be laid-to-rest in the ancient churchyard of St. John-at-Hampstead or in Hampstead’s Victorian ‘garden’ cemetery. This video illustrates the story of these two impressive burial grounds, their notable occupants and remarkable funerary monuments.
