Abney Unearthed project update

The volunteer-based Abney Unearthed project has now run for just over two years.

The project initially began in 2017 with funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund (now NLHF) and Hackney Council. The initial project ended in 2019 and was deemed successful by the HLF after delivering all outputs and providing engaging tours, informative displays, also producing the first version of the online map and adding information to the new database. The online map can now be seen here.

Abney Park Closure on 29 August

On 29 August Abney Park Cemetery will be closed to the public for the day. The reason for this is so we can accommodate a film shoot that will be using large sections of the park and the chapel. To maintain clear health and safety regulations it is necessary to close the park. There will be some set dressing, in preparation for the shoot on 27 and 28 August, but public access will still be available.
