Cemetery – this was the burial ground for Leavesden Hospital. It is totally derelict and overgrown – although there you can see that there were specimen trees planted here. There is also a semi derelict wooden entrance. There were two hospital cemeteries here and one is accessible. The other has been left to become wooded and a condition of the transfer of the land to Three Rivers District Council required it remain in that way.
