Very cool. I have the goal of visiting all of the Magnificent Seven as well, though I've only been to Highgate so far.

I've heard differing stories on the draped urn symbolism though - only seen it used by non-conformists, but the meaning has differed, from emptiness to immortality to departure to the next world.

Heh, funny you should mention that. The author did mention that the draped urn symbolises the emptiness the non-conformist takes with them to the next world!

That's a bit freaky! I can understand people visiting cemeteries but I'm not sure I'd stay for lunch. Lol
