Some Monumental Inscriptions of St Bartholomew's Church, Sydenham. Kindly supplied for the website by Richard J. Travell.
Gravestones recorded in 1974 by Guy Nevill, and published in 1974 by Mrs Doris Pullen in her book "Sydenham", with many added genealogical details. We are grateful for Mrs Pullen for allowing us to reproduce them here. Additional M.I.s from the Church and more modern M.I.s have been added by Richard J. Travell. Further information about the names individuals may be found in "Sydenham and Forest Hill Past", published 1999 by John Coulter of Lewisham Library.
The majority of the gravestones date from the thirty years after the church’s founding. This is because of the vast metropolitan cemeteries which took over here from May 1858
