Holly Village, Swain's Lane, Highgate. Designed by Henry Darbyshire for Baroness Angela Burdett-Coutts in 1865. Unlike her numerous philanthropic projects, including social housing, schools and parks, this was a commercial venture, the residents of which were middle-class professionals. The estate consists of 12 cottages in the Victorian High Gothic style and is Grade II listed.

Sculpture by Henry Alfred Pegram in the Garden of Rest, Golders Green Crematorium, Hoop Lane. The title of the sculpture is a line from a poem by Christina Rosetti called Remember:
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go, yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.

Garden of Rest, Golders Green Crematorium, Hoop Lane. I didn't realise it until I got there that the anniversary of Mark Feld's (aka Marc Bolan's) death was five days earlier. The fan club had been there with flowers.

People leave all sorts of things on the top of this headstone. Usually it's coins (to pay the ferryman who would take the dead across the river Styx), but on this day it was various nuts, leaves and flowers.

Dame Mary Page, relic of Sir Gregory Page, died in 1728. Her tomb is Grade II* listed. The reverse side, which I couldn't see, has a very unusual inscription. Read all about it here: londonist.com/london/history/london-s-oddest-graves-dame-mary-page
