Have you ever wondered what lies beneath your feet when you walk into an ancient church or through a graveyard? The mystery of what lies beneath? Did you know that some of London's most famous cemeteries have catacombs? The book explores some of the most intriguing vaults, crypts, and catacombs of London and where you can still find some of them. Some are even open to public view. Crypts were often built by rich and powerful families to lay to rest their family remains. Many of London's church crypts have been converted into cafés and restaurants to meet London's 20th and 21st century needs but others still retain their occupants. Following on from their last book, London's Hidden Burial Grounds , authors Adrian Miles, a senior archeologist with Museum of London Archaeology, and Dr. Robert Bard, a historian who has written many books about the history of London, have come together again to take their readers on an intriguing journey of discovery though London's vaults, crypts, and catacombs. The book contains many unique photographs and is a haunting insight into the process and burial of our ancestors.
