Description:
The churchyard has been revered as a sacred place for thousands of years. The original church was founded on a Roman site and surrounded by nothing but open land, with the River Fleet winding past.

The main points of interest are the grave of Mary Wollstonecraft, the Sir John Soane mausoleum, the Burdett-Coutts Memorial Obelisk and the Hardy Tree.

The churchyard, now managed by the London Borough of Camden, was extensively refurbished for the Millennium and now provides a peaceful and well-used green space which also includes St Pancras Old Church.
