As part of a run from the Royal Brompton to the Kensal Rise cemetery, then down to Westfield | cwrci | 15/03/2017 |
An engraved stone on the wall of 691C appears to show a boundary line. Otherwise, the topographical excitement around here is limited. | Nick Down1 | 25/01/2017 |
2/12 In London for weekend so did some Borough Bagging Second of Twelve (College Park/Harrow Road/St Johns Wood Park/Seven Sisters Road/Bethnal Green/Whitechappel/Shooters Hill/Langdan Shaw (Sidcup)/Sydenham Hill/Weston Hill/Sansterstead Plantation/Clock House) | Fergalh | 01/10/2016 |
Approached from Kensal Green Station. Not difficult to find. I really couldn't clearly identify the highest point exactly. The cemetery is an amazing and quite imposing place to lose yourself for a while. | Sixtyplus | 04/08/2016 |

Kensal Green Cemetery is a must see.It has a wide range of memorials, old and new, ranging from large mausoleums housing the rich and famous to many distinctive smaller graves (some being mini gardens with fences and seats). It has areas for people of all faiths and social standing. Politicians, writers, actors, explorers, and all in between . Guided tours available. | Chris Pearson | 30/09/2015 |
A short walk from Kensal Green station. Seems to be the Portuguese/Brazilian quarter around here. | Mark Jackson | 17/09/2015 |

1st of 12 LBTs today. A very early train from Swindon. Nice easy one to start short walk from tube station. Why do the police park their vans in the cemetery? | Hillsidenick | 14/05/2013 |

Visited With Darren while trying to visit all the high points on London in one day. | magirob | 10/01/2013 |
Bagged on way back from board meeting. Rubbish but slightly better than the one up the road. | simon and co | 15/11/2012 |
Exit from the cemetary it is. A sign on the wall above advertises "Outdoors Plus", which we considered rather ironic for one of the easiest, most urban tops going! | wheresthepath | 29/12/2011 |
Biking trip from Kew half an hour one way to visit these two high points. Its dark in the evenings now so need to bike carefully. | NilsOS | 30/09/2010 |
