Mentioned in the Domesday Book, Peckham Rye is also the site, in the 1760s, of artist and poet William Blake's visions.One was of "a tree filled with angels, bright angelic wings bespangling every bough like stars". Today this beautiful, big green triangle betwixt East Dulwich, Peckham and Nunhead is composed of a newly restored Victorian park and the original and historic Common.
Nunhead Cemetery is one of seven Victorian cemeteries in London and possibly the most attractive. Part of what makes it special is the contrast between the lavish monuments built to remember the most important people of the era and the small, humble but equally memorable headstones that mark public burials. The first visit can elicit a range of reactions from visitors, the dense foliage and gothic architecture can be imposing, but this is countered by fantastic views and beautiful scenery.
