Read more about Cross Bones Graveyard here:
A shrine has been created at the gates to the site of a post-medieval burial ground in Redcross Way, Southwark. This outcasts’ graveyard was already regarded as ‘ancient’ in the 16th century, when it was known as ‘the Single Woman’s churchyard’ – a reference to the ‘Winchester Geese’, prostitutes licensed by the Bishop of Winchester to work in south London’s Liberty of the Clink.
By Victorian times it had become known as ‘Cross Bones’, the pauper’s burial ground. It was closed in 1853, described as being ‘completely overcharged with dead’.
In the early 1990s it was partly dug up during work on the Jubilee Line Extension. Museum of London archaeologists removed 148 skeletons, an estimated 1% of 15,000 burials.

The discolored areas are areas of spongy bone. Bone of this texture indicates fast-growing areas, though it can sometimes be found in very old animals as well.
Colonel Edward Lucas carved two bone rings (left and center) while incarcerated at Libby Prison in Richmond, Virginia. Lucas, the son of Territorial Governor Robert Lucas, made the initialed ring (center) for his own son. The initials S.K.F (on the ring at the right) refer to Samuel K. Fishel of Manchester, Iowa, a veteran of the 30th Iowa Infantry, who was held at Andersonville.
I love Carol O'Connell's books. I stumbled onto them a few years ago and now own almost all of the Mallory series. I important word in that sentence is "own" because while I read a lot, I am no longer driven to own every book.
This is not one of the Mallory series, but it does share the mystery aspect of them as well as the psychological tension, the good writing, the depth of characters and the twist at the end- just when you think it's over, but it's not really. I loved it.
Set out one day on a photo trip. Packed up the van with food, camera gear, redbull. Ready for anything. We didn't even get a mile from the house and came across these bones in the middle of the street. The sun was starting to set, and the light was amazing. Whenever I see a great sunset, I turn around to see whats behind me. Something is being lit by that wonderful light, and is usually more interesting than yet another sunset. Behind me there were some very interesting trees so I walked over a little bit to shoot them. By the time I got back to these bones the light was already gone. I set up an SB-600 on a stand with a full CTO and created my own sunset. The photo came out interesting. But not nearly as interesting as it would have been 10 minutes prior.
