Kensal Green (All Souls) Cemetery W10 - Kensington and Chelsea

London's first metropolitan cemetery, designed by John William Griffith in 1833. The cemetery contains a large number of listed monuments and key buildings also at risk. The Management Plan from 2004 needs revision, but changes to forward planning and operations are having a positive impact on tree and vegetation management and other conservation issues. Discussions are taking place between key stakeholders to identify funding opportunities for further investment in key structures and infrastructure.
