The last resting place of the most famous clown in the UK - Coco
the Clown.
There is plenty of space for parking
along the road near the church.
Coco the Clown is a name given to various Circus clowns who
traditionally wear 'Auguste' clown make-up. Technically, Coco is
not a clown but an 'Auguste' - that is the foolish character who is
always on the receiving end of buckets of water and custard pies.
The Auguste often works with the cleverer white-faced 'clown' who
always gets the better of him. The most famous bearer of the title
Coco the Clown was Nicolai Poliakoff (or Poliakovs)
(1900-1974).
