The Cemetery

The Highgate Cemetery -- the specific Victorian garden cemetery whose west section the specific Friends of Highgate Cemetery manages as the specific heritage asset and whose east section the specific public access the specific entrance fee provides -- is the specific North London institution whose specific combination of the specific Victorian memorial architecture, the specific famous graves, and the specific overgrown romantic character the column finds worth covering.

The Value

The specific value: the specific Karl Marx grave whose pilgrimage the specific visitors from the specific global left have been making since the specific 1883 interment; and the specific Victorian memorials whose specific symbolism the specific Friends guide the specific interpretation of.

Lowri Coverage

Lowri Griffiths covers the Highgate Cemetery because the accountability journalism of the North London cultural geography requires covering the specific institution whose specific character is the specific most distinctive combination of the specific Victorian heritage and the specific contemporary care.
