I do wish though that you’d expanded on “Tate built a fortune on the back of his sugar business” to mention the enslaved people who made that fortune for him!

I had no idea that Mrs Beeton died so young. I have always imagined her as an earlier incarnation of Mary Berry

I love to visit cemeteries whenever I can get to the area.
Highgate was a real treasure to visit. When I visited Brookwood I had to give myself a purpose and select certain people that I admired such as Rebecca West. Thank you for your great information about West Norwood
