Boundary wall to Kensal Green Cemetery, Harrow Road W10 - Kensington and Chelsea
High brick boundary wall to Harrow Road, a 100-metre section of which collapsed in 2006. Further bays were subsequently reduced in height due to safety concerns. Historic England awarded a grant towards the first phase of rebuilding the collapsed section which involves piling, casting a ground beam and rebuilding the wall as original. Repair works have been completed to ten bays in total, funded by Historic England and the General Cemetery Company. However, considerable further funding is required to complete essential works to the entire wall.
