Possibly the most famous memorial around Greenwich is that of Thomas Murphy in Charlton Cemetery. Murphy, who died in 1932, was the owner of Charlton Greyhound Track and to commemorate and memorialise this his trusty greyhounds guard his memorial.
I was unable to track down any more information on Murphy or his memorial but there are a few photographs of the memorial here: http://www.londonnecropolis.com/charltoncemetery.htm
Hey Daniella - or anyone reading this,
ReplyDeleteI know this post is 6 years old, but as a grave-dweller of this cemetery, I wanted to find out more information on Thomas Murphy, and managed to find this: https://runner500.wordpress.com/tag/thomas-murphy/
It's pretty detailed and informative. Hope it's of interest.
