Graveyard can be creepy, but they can also be appealing, peaceful, relaxing and very photogenic. Here's a round up of ethereal and timeless pictures from our wonderful Flickr pool contributors, taken from different cemeteries and graveyards around London, including the 'Magnificent Seven'.

Thanks to the following photographers for use of their photos via Flickr: Edward Simpson, Matt Brown, D1v1d, Sven Loach, helenoftheways, Fiddyone, FreezingFilms, Fred Adams, Torsten Reimer, Gabor Hernadi, Stephanie Sadler and Viramati.
