I was waiting for a face to appear when you looked in the broken grave lol

Prinsep was an artist and painter of the 19th century. Yes it certainly looks like a bath tub 😊

Lovin these overgrown cemeteries, they somehow look better than the maintained ones! Thanks Chris! 👍👍👍

I’m really enjoying these videos you’ve been putting out. Keep up the great work Chris!

I love these old cemeteries in the UK. Always so interesting thanks for taking us along.

Thank you, Chris! ❤️

I remember seeing a video a long time ago about strings inside of caskets that were tied to bells on the outside, so if someone was thought to be dead and buried alive, if they woke up, they could ring the bell for help. Pretty scary that it was actually a thing that happened enough to implement a system for this.

I always wonder about what the lives of those people were like. They laughed, loved, made love, had children, lost their loves, grieved heavily over their loss,wondered about death and now, over a hundred years later, here we sit, looking at where they were laid. Last year my wife was alive, today she rests in a similar grave... it happened so fast.

Loved this tour. Kit Lambert - WHO knew? Thanks for your curiosity and commitment.

West Norwood cemetery has some famous industrialists amongst others. Well worth a visit. And the Crystal Palace site is close by, too.

Gosh, so many, so close. 🙏🕊️

13:22 the "tub" of this marker is supposed to resemble an ancient Roman sarcophagus. These types of sarcophagi were used into the medieval era. The gothic colonnade structure supporting it above the ground kind of makes me think the designer got their inspiration from the latter.

You may also be interested to know.. In the late 1880s when the nearby Earl's Court Exhibition Grounds played host to the American Show with Buffalo Bill, a number of Native American performers in the show, died while on tour in Britain. The Sioux chief, Long Wolf, a veteran of the Oglala Sioux wars was buried here on 13 June 1892 having died age 59 of bronchial pneumonia. He shared the grave with a 17-month-old Sioux girl named White Star believed to have fallen from her mother's arms while on horseback. A British woman, Elizabeth Knight, traced his family 105 years later and campaigned with them to have his remains returned to the land of his birth. In 1997, Chief Long Wolf was finally moved to a new plot at Wolf Creek Cemetery (ancestral burial ground of the Oglala Sioux tribe) in Pine Ridge, South Dakota.

Thanks Chris, I hope you are enjoying your stay here in England. 🇬🇧

Your right, it look like the door from LOTL.... I loved that show. Again, thank you for sightseeing for us.

So cool that you mentioned Land Of The Lost! One of my favorite childhood Saturday morning shows! Those things were called pylons.

Hi Chris. Loving your holiday.Thx so much for sharing with us. ♥️ From Australia

"The Land of The Lost" ... I remember that show 😊

Brompton Cemetery is amazing. I live a couple of streets away and this place quite a jewel to have in your backyard. You missed the open house last Sunday, where they had a tour of the cemetery providing the history and also a tour of one of the catacombs.

I am fascinated by the craftsmanship of the crips, vaults, headstones, and the architecture of some of the cemeteries. Like they say they don't make them like that anymore.

According to Find A Grave Beatrix Potter was cremated with her ashes scattered by her beloved husband on the spot in New Sawrey at the south end of the lake called Esthwaite Water. It was there that they had often walked while dating

The crypt you talking about that has mother and her three daughters buried is 22 feet by 12 feet

The well kept part looked like the War Grave section. There is a group who permanantly keep the stones and areas nice in all cemeteries in the UK

Thanks so much keep up the amazing work

If you keep going to these old cemeteries, your going to accidentally catch a ghost and end up on Nukes channel.

The detail and facts you give is great! Thanks for taking us to places that otherwise wouldn’t be possible. 👍🇨🇦

2:43 there is a way in. There’s a door with a keyhole right in front of you!

I LOVE CEMETERIES, You find the best, most beautiful ones that I have ever seen! It,s a real pleasure to view these places as I will never be able to visit in person, THANK YOU.

Finally binge watching most of your videos. I love these old cemeteries! 🕷️🕸️⚰️📜💀🦴☠️

Fantastic!!!!! I'm bingeing Mobile instinct 2

I still have Beatrice Potter books from when I was a child, some may have been my mothers. (I’m 50).

I would have thought that the tub like grave would have been for water for the horses carrying the coffin carriages many times to and from gŕaveyards as maybe the person buried there was a horse lover am i crazy for thinking this , just, it did remind me of a drinking trough from days gone by . lol

Love the old cemetery.

Pre-fab stone is a work of art; even in death.

Hello Chris very beautiful looking Cemetery even though it looks pretty creepy .😊👍

Cemeteries reminds me of the fleeting nature of life, and it prompts me to reflect my own mortality. Additionally, I see these places peaceful and serene, offering a sense of calm and tranquility that can be difficult to find in other areas. Do other people here feel the same?

Totally land of the lost! Love the work Chris!

Sweet. Thanks.

It is a beautiful cemetary Chris. Someone needs to mow the place.

I have watched so many videos on this cemetery so you can’t imagine how excited I am to see your post. Check out Julian Barnett’s channel for the historical background of the cemetery and few unique markers. The royal parks channel also has detailed explanations on it. I found a channel called dead good walks and they actually go into the catacombs

Geez! If I was walking and heard that bell a ringing , You know I’d hightail it out of there so fast . Nice tour . Thank You.

Very interesting cemetery.

Chris I enjoyed this a lot. You seem to be putting a lot into your vids and you're better than ever at this. 👍🏻 The cemetery is interesting and charming. I've never seen graves as old as some of these. Thanks for the journey. ✌🏻

Wonderful

10:30 Burried are parents, General James Freeth and his wife Harriot; the wife, Harriet Jane, wife of their eldest son; their eldest son, Major General Sampson Freeth; their only daughter, Eliza Freeth (died the same year as her brother Sampson Freeth).

Your videos on England cemeteries are awesome.I enjoy watching them and discovering how people who have passed,lived a long time ago.Thank you

Princip tub is aa flower planter, Tour bell left behind. Make sure all gests get out and not locked in.

Sherlock Holmes was filmed at that cemetery. I'm from the uk and i love the perspective of other peoples views on our cemeteries . Thankyou.

The grave that says I "for the resurrection of the Dead" has the last line of the Nicene Creed on it, "We look for the resurrection of the Dead and the life of the world to come."

This place is amazing, I loved it. Full of hidden Gems. I saw that bell on my trip also. I'd imagine it's used by the tour guide maybe as a prop.

Once again, Thank you Chris💙🙏🏻What a magnificent, historic place. So peaceful and endless. Amen 🙏🏻

Neat video!!!

Thanks again Chris for sharing. Brilliant work in keeping us informed 👊👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

Thanks for this video homie. I watch your videos when I’m sad remember my loved ones who passed away.

Awesome footage Chris

Hope you’re enjoying your tour of England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. Must make a nice change to learn about and visit a totally new place especially a new country. Also knowing that some of the places you’re visiting are older than the 🇺🇸 in its current form

Beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

Bells raised an alarm if someone was buried thought to be dead, but wasn't.

Loved this tour. Ty

Thank you for your wonderful series - may it never end! So interesting and relaxing to watch.

Always am fascinated with all your videos. Most interesting your knowledge of the graves you point out. Thanks for the walk. ☮️

Some of those coffins are so very deteriorated inside the mausoleum it makes me wonder if they even bother to open them up once a month ?

Fascinating content as always and terrific understated presentation. Thanks so much for posting.

Back in time, the bowls, pans for cooking were made of copper. A lot of the time, the roofs would leak when it rained. The rain mixed with the copper, it would cause acid rain. People would eat/drink from them bowls and fall sick, sometimes fall into a coma. It gave the appearance that the person was dead, when in fact they were not dead. Hence, why people would be buried with a bell attached to their grave. That's what I learned anyway.

Kit Lambert's father was the composer & conductor Constant Lambert.

Sorry guys, I've gotta say it: " *I am the one who dings!* " *DING* - Hector Salamanca.

The single serpent entwined around a staff is the Staff of Aesculapius (not to be confused with the modern adopted symbol of medicine/healing; two snakes entwined around a staff, called the Caduceus). Aesculapius was the god of medicine and was killed by his grandfather, Zeus, with a thunderbolt because not enough people were passing onto the underworld due to his healing skills. The round serpent symbol below is the Ouroboros; a serpent eating it's own tail. It is an ancient symbol of eternity. The eagle symbolized courage, strength and immortality, but it was also considered a messenger of the highest Gods. You can also see that all these old coffins were lined in lead. The royals still do this. Explorations are so much richer when you understand everything you are seeing. :) Laslty - while we love these overgrown and neglected places for their atmosphere, rampant plant growth contributes to the destruction of the stones, sadly.

For whom the Bell tolls...lol ❤️

Just stumbled across your channel, but already hooked, really good content and very nice delivery! Thanks so much Chris!

These videos are fascinating! If you are ever in the Richmond, Virginia area again you must do a video on Hollywood Cemetery founded in the 1830s or 1840s. It boasts two US presidents and the Richmond Vampire!

Very interesting video! I love old cemeteries too, lucky you to get to explore these. Thanks for taking us along.

Chris I think ,there are people who just put in there own time for the Keep up, That would make a great Video, Young Men and women, That go around to poorly kept Cemetery,s, and helped the keep up out of the kindness of there hearts.

more of these videos!!

keep up the great work

Awesome Video 🌴🌻🇮🇳🌴🌻

These cemeteries are fascinating. I was told that once a place is full then there is no money generated for upkeep. I'm not certain. I think most cemeteries now have funds set aside for future maintenance but then again it was hear say. Love the videos.

The bell is for prayers.

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ love your videos they are so fascinating💯💯

To wake the dead for breakfast.

Welcome to Blighty.

I think they leave areas "uncut" fo4 wildlife purposes.

You can see the stands of Chelsea Football club in the distance. The cemetery backs on to the club

muy nice saludos desde México

They don't make them like they used to.

Before she died in 1943, she made sure no one would benefit from her tombstone. Beatrix Potter had decreed that she should be cremated and her ashes scattered by her shepherd Tom Storey in a secret Lakes location only known to the pair of them. It’s believed they were scattered in Sawrey , England. Source:Google

12.55 the enclosed part has a lot of CWGC war graves so that area will be taken care by CWGC

Boa noite meu amigo este cemitério está abandonado

I believe Beatrix Potter’s ashes were scattered elsewhere

The reason why some of the older areas are allowed to over grow is because it is good for the local eco system and provides local plant growth that encourages insect and animal populations to flourish. This is not something you really see in the US because of the cultural expectation that lawns, cemeteries, parks etc should be pristinely manicured at all times. Also, Many US cemeteries just aren't that old (compared to Europes) and are still actively accepting burials. For example, the family cemetery at Thomas Jeffersons home, Montecello, is generally not part of the visitors tour as people are still actively being buried there (at least as of 2017 when I last visited). So because we don't have a lot of inactive burial sites, the idea to use them as a pseudo nature preserve, is just not common.

Awesome video I would assume the bell is if you get locked in there and hope that someone alive here's it

Land of the Lost pylon, or a Tardis disguised as one? Or Snoopy's dog house?

Fantastic!!! Looks like the Ol Queen only buys one weedwhacker per year

03:15 maybe it's a TARDIS?

Beatrix Potter was cremated and her ashes were spread in some town I don't the name of.

Beatrix potter was cremated and her ashes scattered in sawrey England

So the buried by mistake can let people know they are ALIVE

I just added Wikipedia page about General sir james freeth

I suggest you visit Highgate Cemetery.... it is fascinating, and it has Karl Marx's Grave....

It's amazing how many people don't know what "notoriety" actually means. This number also includes many journalists, so I'll give you a break on this mistake. Plus, I like your videos.

Should be kept clean and not in disarray
