As
the first of these two views so clearly shows,
Nunhead Cemetery significantly predated any
development around it.
All Saints' Cemetery, as it was known, was
opened by the London Cemetery Company in 1840,
one of only two large scale private cemeteries
in South London.
The cemerery stimulated a small number of
busin-esses, such as stone masons and undertakers.
