Podcasts about brompton cemetery

At the same time that the rural garden movement was launching and thriving in Victorian America, the Magnificent Seven were being established in London. The founding of these seven cemeteries was an effort to establish private cemeteries outside of London to alleviate the overcrowding in the city's churchyards. Small parish churchyards had provided burial space for hundreds of years, but with a burgeoning London population, burial space was shrinking and citizens were becoming worried about the unhealthy conditions. These new suburban cemeteries would be Kensal Green Cemetery, West Norwood Cemetery, Highgate Cemetery, Abney Park Cemetery, Brompton Cemetery, Nunhead Cemetery, and Tower Hamlets Cemetery. These cemeteries wouldn't get their nickname until 1981 and the name came from architectural historian Hugh Meller who was inspired by the 1960 western film "The Magnificent Seven."  Intro and Outro music "Stones and Bones" was written and produced by History Goes Bump and any use is strictly prohibited.

Sir Arthur Sullivan became the most renowned composer of the Victorian era, with his fame spreading across Europe and America too. His output spanned many genres including oratorios, a symphony, chamber music, hymns and anthems, but it was for his collaboration with the librettist W. S. Gilbert on operetta's that he is best remembered today. He was a personal friend to royalty, and he was knighted when he was in his early forties. He also had a liking for playing cards, buying race horses and gambling, frequently loosing the substantial earnings from the stage works he'd composed. Sullivan became a pillar of the British musical establishment, so that when he died, despite wanting to be buried with his family in Brompton Cemetery, he was laid to rest in the crypt of St Paul's Cathedral, with an additional service at the Chapel Royal in St. James's Palace.

In this episode, recorded as part of Women’s History Month, our Interpretation Manager Lucy Kellett explores the stories of some of the great women associated with The Royal Parks. To do this she is joined by Claire Harris, Brompton Cemetery’s Partnership & Community Outreach Officer. Claire’s work involves researching and communicating the unique stories of Brompton’s residents, among whom are Emmaline Pankhurst – founder of the Women's Social and Political Union, otherwise known as the Suffragettes. Starting with Emmaline, Claire and Lucy tell the tale of how voting rights for women were achieved as well as the stories of other extraordinary women who pushed the boundaries in their own fields, fighting for equality.  About The Royal Parks: The Royal Parks is the charity that exists to make sure London’s eight historic royal parks will always be there to enrich the lives of local residents and visitors to London. The charity looks after eight of London’s largest open spaces: Hyde Park, The Green Park, Richmond Park, Greenwich Park, St James’s Park, Bushy Park, The Regent’s Park and Primrose Hill, and Kensington Gardens. For more information visit www.royalparks.org.uk Follow The Royal Parks on Twitter @theroyalparks, Facebook.com/TheRoyalParksLondon and Instagram.com/TheRoyalParksSupport the show (https://www.royalparks.org.uk/support-the-parks)Support the show (https://www.royalparks.org.uk/support-the-parks)Support the show (https://www.royalparks.org.uk/support-the-parks)

To an old and ornate cemetery now, and ‘Is the secret to time travel lurking in an old London Cemetery?’ asked Helen Smith in the Daily News of October the 29th 1998. You see, there is a story that deep within the Brompton Cemetery in London is a time machine for teleportation or time travel. It sounds an extraordinary claim and there is much intriguing mystery to this story. This portal to another world is said to be within the Egyptian mausoleum of a spinster named Miss H.

Here we are for episode 196! This one has also been brewing for quite some time - in fact I started work on it when we last visited Brompton Cemetery in early 2017 and then recorded scenes with a number of guests throughout the year and into 2018; finally I'm ready to release it!

“Is This Mausoleum a Time Portal?” and More True, Scary, Paranormal, Horror Stories! #WeirdDarkness In this episode: Elva Heaster was dead – but that didn’t stop her ghost from solving the murder. In Stephen King’s “Pet Semetery”, beloved family pets could come back from the dead; in Washington there is a hole that some say brings animals back to life – for real. In the middle of the Brompton Cemetery grounds, shrouded by trees stands a mausoleum… and what some believe is a time machine. The Mothman is apparently no longer bound to Point Pleasant, West Virginia – in 2017 he appeared 55 times in Chicago. Plus another entry into my Dark Chapters series where I narrate an entire chapter of a horror novel or paranormal book.
