Everyone is crazy for Crossbones these days!

These were all taken near Borough High Street. Plenty of quirky views, including some of the railings at Crossbones cemetery, where around 15,000 prostitutes and other poor people are believed to be buried. People remember these unknown dead by putting votives up on the railings: more recent loved ones are remembered too.

A skull and crossbones is a symbol consisting of a human skull and two long bones crossed together under or behind the skull. The design originates in the Late Middle Ages as a symbol of death and especially as a memento mori on tombstones.
