There are two tree trails at the
City of London Cemetery and Crematorium - one around the
cemetery (taking in 43 trees along the way), and one around
the memorial garden.
The
free guide - available from our
online bookshop -
includes numerous pictures of the trees, a map of each trail and
lists of the trees with both their common and latin names.
Descriptions of the individual trees include such details as the
place of origin of the tree, when it flowers and the approximate
height to which it grows.
School groups are welcome by
prior arrangement - sorry no dogs except guide dogs.
As well as the trees, the cemetery has been planted with a wealth
of flowering shrubs and its rhododendrons offer a spectacular
display in late spring. For details of how to get here and
facilities for disabled visitors, please see our '
