Crypt

As part of the workday, the Friends of Nunhead also allowed us to check out the crypt under the chapel which is generally closed off to the public. The crypt was incredibly eerie, there were bags of bodies scattered around, broken and worn coffins, chipped and dusty gravestones, the sound of drip drip dripping, and it smelt very musty (sort of like bones). There were also pointy stalactites protruding from the ceiling!
