Isn't Abney Park one of the Magnificent Seven Victorian cemetaries? Along with (I can never remember all of them) Kensal Green, Highgate, West Brompton, Nunhead.... er, Norwood? And the other one. I believe they were built when London's church graveyards were quite clearly not going to be enough to house all the dead. I found a website some time ago which gave a load of info, but alas, I can't find it now. Abney Park is a great place for picking blackberries and elderberries btw.
