The gravestone of Herbert Chapman. Former Arsenal manager.

Inspired by last Saturday's talk by @rosiefiore.bsky.social about the location of Lucy Westenra's tomb in the fictional churchyard of Kingstead, I decided to make a Friday 13th visit to St. Mary's Churchyard in Hendon.

100 years ago Herbert Chapman became Arsenal manager. A football revolutionary, he added the white sleeves to the previously all-red Arsenal shirts and he introduced numbered shirts. He also persuaded London Underground to rename Gillespie Road station 'Arsenal'.
