There were lots of pretty statues and mausoleums.

This grave was for a famous boxer, who use to drive his dog around in the car's passenger seat. During the funeral, the dog was the only passenger in the car following the hearse.

This was Nero the lion who is on the top of the grave of George Wombwell's, who started England's first circus.


In the middle of the cemetery there were Egyptian-style catacombs with a Babylon Tree in the middle.

After a bite to eat in Highgate we went around the East Cemetery.


Some of the graves were tangled in tree roots and it looked like they were about to be pulled under.


The most famous grave in the cemetery was for Karl Marx. Tom said it’s been bombed twice!


Jeremy Beadle’s grave was covered in books.


This pop artist’s grave was very cool.


The best grave of all was Malcolm McLaren’s, which was a carved M M with Malcolm Was Here below.
