Monthly vigil at the Cross Bones Graveyard

This event has finished Took place on: Wednesday, 23rd Jan 2013

 Free

On Redcross Way, a tranquil back-street running parallel to Borough High Street, there's a plot of land surrounded by London Underground hoardings. There's a big rusty iron gate adorned with ivy, ribbons, flowers, feathers, jewellery and other curious totems - and with a bronze plaque bearing the epitaph: 'R.I.P. The Outcast Dead'.

This is Cross Bones, a pauper's burial ground with a legend going back to medieval times.

Please bring a flower, a ribbon, a totem, a memento to tie to the shrine at the gates.
