Highgate Cemetery: One Of The Most Famous Cemeteries In The World
Highgate Cemetery was one of the earliest private cemeteries in England. London?s huge population growth in the early 19th century meant that most churchyards were full and there was a growing concern about the need to bury the dead. Between 1801 and 1841 the population of London doubled from 1 to 2 million and during this time the capital was also hit with unprecedented health crises including typhoid cholera. The solution to this problem would be solved by entrepreneurial Victorian businessmen. In 1836 an Act of Parliament established the London Cemetery Company, led by Stephen Geary. There were plans to build a North, South, and East cemetery, with Highgate being the flagship project.
