London's Hidden Burial Grounds
Amberley Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-4456-6111-7 (ISBN)
It is fascinating to think that many hundreds of generations of Londoners lie beneath the city without us knowing. Over many centuries burial grounds have been developed, built over and then forgotten, often beneath playgrounds, gardens or car parks. When modern development takes place, remains are disturbed and we are reminded of a London that has long since disappeared, particularly with recent archaeological discoveries across the city.
In London’s Hidden Burial Grounds, authors Robert Bard and Adrian Miles seek to uncover many of the capital's lost graveyards, often in the unlikeliest of places.
Robert Bard (PhD) is an author and historian, a former pilot for Jersey European Airways, and a long-time keen yachtsman who has had a continuous contact with Alderney, Guernsey and Jersey for over thirty-five years. He has written many books for Amberley Publishing, including The Channel Islands at War: A Dark History, London’s Hidden Burial Grounds, and more recently Paranormal Berkshire. He lives in Chipping Barnet in Hertfordshire. Adrian graduated in Archaeological Sciences from the University of Bradford in 1984 and has worked for the archaeology departments of the Museum of London since 1986. He has been a Senior Archaeologist since 1990 and has specialised in the excavation of burials since 1988, particularly from the Post-medieval period.
