Talk:Hyde Park pet cemetery

Is it the "real" George Orwell?
, can you confirm that the source is really referring to George Orwell, or to someone else by the same name? Yoninah (talk) 19:14, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi Yoninah, I guess this is because Historic England states "a certain George Orwell". I've added additional sources from the Telegraph ("Today, the place George Orwell called ‘perhaps the most horrible spectacle in Britain’ can only be viewed by prior appointment.") and Rough Guides ("The cemetery - "perhaps the most horrible spectacle in Britain", according to George Orwell - is no longer open to the public") - Dumelow (talk) 08:11, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
 * yes, "a certain George Orwell" was what I was wondering about. Thanks for the additional cites! Best, Yoninah (talk) 11:49, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I appreciate the effort. Is there a primary source where Orwell's assessment can be found? All the references in the article are to secondary sources that quote Orwell without saying where he actually said it. -108.2.69.60 (talk) 21:09, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Indeed, would be nice. I couldn't find it online, but it could easily be in a private letter or something - Dumelow (talk) 07:55, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
