Today, I’d like to initiate a new blog series generated from our fabulous Londonistas over on the London Living networking site. We’ve recently been contributing ideas to a discussion forum there entitled, “My Favorite Hidden Gem in London is…“, and I thought it would be fun to share some of the great suggestions already accumulating!
I’ll get this rolling with mine: the Brompton Cemetery near the Old Brompton tube station. A serene Victorian graveyard for strolling, jogging, or pondering that I discovered my very first full day living in London. Beatrix Potter, author of the Peter Rabbit children’s books, was a local who liked to walk through here, and to my surprise it was recently featured in a scene of the new Sherlock Holmes film with Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law. I almost hate to recommend it, though, as I don’t want it to become too populated with the living!
What hidden treasures will YOU discover in your new neighborhood once London Relocation Ltd. places you there?
