Garden of eternal rest: twilight walk of St. Pancras Old Church graveyard

November 5, 2025 @ 15:00 - 16:00

As November nights draw in and the last light fades over the old gravestones, come and discover the secrets of this quiet garden that once was a burial ground. Join Elena, an accredited Camden Tour Guide and local resident, on a twilight walking tour starting at St Pancras Old Church, with a fascinating history that goes back 1500 years.

We will uncover many hidden stories – sometimes tragic, sometimes romantic, sometimes almost unbelievable: we will hear about resurrectionists going “fishing”, discover the truth behind the myth of the legendary and much missed Hardy tree and learn how the two most famous horror characters of all times are inextricably linked to this place.

We will meet famous writers, genius architects, WW2 most unlikely hero and even a gender-fluid 18th century spy. By unearthing their stories, we will bring them back to life.
