St. Mary's Cemetery
St. Mary's Roman Catholic Cemetery is located at Kensal Green in London. Established in 1858, the 29 acre (120,000 m²) site was built just up the hill from the much larger Kensal Green Cemetery. It is the final resting place for more than 165,000 individuals of the Roman Catholic faith and features a memorial to Belgian soldiers of the First World War who were wounded in combat and evacuated to England but died there in hospital. This memorial can be seen in the background of the image at right.
Some of the notables interred in St. Mary's are:
  • Sax Rohmer (1883-1959), author, creator of "Dr. Fu Manchu"
