Beschrijving

Well before 1549, when the first transfer of bones from St. Paul's charnel house to this spot took place, Bunhill was called Bone Hill, or the hill of bones. From 1665 to 1852, 120 000 people, for the most part non-Anglicans as the ground was never consecrated, were buried here, among them the writer Daniel Defoe (1661-1731) and the painter William Blake (1757-1827). In the small Quaker cemetery close by rests George Fox (1624-1691), founder of this religious movement.
