Abney Park Cemetery Newscommunity, environment, natureHackney Archives- (Found June 29, 2008 ) Aims: We are a charity aiming to maintain a historic park that became the first non-denominational Victorian London cemetery. It was also the first private cemetery near London to be open to all classes of people. Unique in many other ways too, the park is now a nature reserve, place of memory and outdoor learning centre. Our park is part of a ring of London walks and has a classroom and visitor facilities which we hope to upgrade.
