HYDE PARK VICTORIAN PET CEMETERY WALKING TOURS

Hi, all -- For those who want to visit the 1881 Victorian Pet Cemetery in Hyde Park, the Royal Parks Charity is offering 15 pound per person 90-minute walking "Hidden Stories of Hyde Park" (ending with the cemetery) tours once a month via EventBrite. I'll post link below. The cemetery (dogs & cats) is in the back yard of a private cottage and the ONLY access is via the Royal Park Charity tour. The only other way to see it is to peek through the bars on the street. But the tour lets you go in and take photographs. I was just there for their May session and it's wonderful. I've read old posts going back some years here about not getting a response when writing to Royal Parks, but that may have had to do with Covid/Lockdown, because they are happily replying now. Here's a link to EventBrite that is listing a June and July tour, but they told me they will be post new ones for every month after that.
