There was no room left in London's cemeteries, and so they were commuted to Canvey Island, east of Tilbury on the Thames estuary.
伦敦的墓地已经没有剩余空间,因此这些骸骨被转移到泰晤士河口的坎维岛,位于蒂尔伯里以东的地方。

(重定向自Canvey)
Canvey Island is a civil parish and reclaimed island in the Thames estuary in Essex, England. It has an area of 7.12 square miles (18.44km) and a population of 38,170. It is separated from the mainland of south Essex by a network of creeks. Lying only just above sea level it is prone to flooding at exceptional tides, but has nevertheless been inhabited since the Roman invasion of Britain.
