Overview

Visit the graves of some of the lesser-known characters buried in Greyfriars Kirkyard, including the lecturer who taught Charles Darwin, the actor buried in full theatrical costume, and the First World War ace pilot.

Did you know Greyfriars cemetery has links to golf, the moon ... and turnips? Who was the mysterious Miss Cathcart? Who was the man who fought a duel in London's Hyde Park? Where is the bestselling novelist from the 1770s buried?

Although not our main focus, we will also point out the graves with links to Harry Potter on this fascinating walk around Greyfriars cemetery. No pesky ghosts interrupting!
