"Office hours: Monday - Friday, 9am - 4:30pmTo enter the cemetery or crematorium for funerals, please use the West Gate NW10 5JS unless stated otherwise by your Funeral Director.Kensal Green Cemetery, opened in 1833, holds 72 acres of just under 70,000 burial locations as well as the popular West London Crematorium. Inspired by the Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, the garden cemetery includes two conservation areas, adjoining a canal.

With collaborations with various organisations around the city, the cemetery continues to be a paragon of architecture."

The main gate closes at 4.30pm but I understand another gate is open until 6pm. Huge cemetery and it is a really nice one. Pretty run down but has charm. Some huge family tombs here and I could have walked around for hours had I the time. Free to enter.
Beautiful Cemetery with many years of History. My wonderful mum & many of my family are laid to rest here . I just wish those maintaining the cemetery grounds would be more careful. They’re always knocking things around and scratching many of the marble grave stones when cutting the grass . It’s like they have no respect what so ever for all the dear souls that have been laid to rest on Sacred Ground. I have also noticed the headstone next to my mums is beginning to subside and is getting closer to my dear mums resting place . I still stand with my five stars because , unlike Hampstead Cemetery you don’t allow loads of dog walkers in to soil on the Sacred Cemetery Grounds .See pics of subsidence.
One of the 'Magnificent Seven' Victorian cemeteries around London. The main entrance is a little to the west of Kensal Green Station, and the East entrance is also in Harrow Road, to the west of the junction with Ladbroke Grove. Entering this way allows a walk through the cemetery to be combined with a canal walk. There is not much signage inside, and the paths can be wet, however using Google Maps you can find your way around and also see some well known people's tombs.
The beautiful stone work and caliber of people buried here are impressive.
Beautiful cemetery. The 2-hour Sunday walking tour was fantastic. I didn’t catch the guide’s name on Oct 20th, but she was wonderful. You’re welcomed to stay for tea after the tour, which I regret not being able to stay for. Definitely worth a visit!
One of London's Magnificent Seven Victorian cemeteries. It's still accepting burials so better maintained than Highgate or West Norwood. Mix of over the top monuments, to the great and good, to family graves for locals. Definitely worth a visit if it's your sort of thing.
Nice enough cemetary - highlights are the graves of Brunel, Charles Babbage and Prince George. Some areas were lovely with trees and shade but others were quite barren of green. A nice place to get lost but I found that there were quite a few cars driving in the cemetery. And, no toilets that I could find! I have now seen a response that there are toilets in the crematorium building -good to know as there is nothing indicated on the maps at the entrance to the cemetary, nor is there there signage in the cemetary itself.
Large area with some historic plots .No toilets here though which is not good Will look different every time you visit
A lovely cemetery, if a little unkempt. Depending on your mood or standards you may find that charming or unacceptable. Many historic figures rest here and there are lovely surprises for people of all nationalities. Beautiful trees. The Catholic side of it is more orderly and better taken care of. I hear burying your loved ones here can be quite dear. A really nice, quiet walk in all seasons.
Beautiful calm surroundings, wasn't busy, paths looked after, graves not overgrown with bushes. Lovely cemetery.
