The former St James’s Burial Ground dates to the 18th century. A proprietary chapel on the Pentonville Estate was built in 1787 and four years later became St James’s, a chapel of ease for Clerkenwell parish church. By the 20th century the church building had become redundant and was demolished in the 1980s to make way for an office building. Also buried here is Henry Penton, who gave his name to the surrounding area of Pentonville.
Joseph Grimaldi (18 December 1778 – 31 May 1837) was an English actor, comedian and dancer, who became the most popular English entertainer of the Regency era.
In the early 1800s, Grimaldi quickly became the most famous Clown in London transforming the Clown character from a pratfalling country bumpkin into the most important character in the harlequinade that formed part of British pantomimes, notably at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane and the Sadler's Wells and Covent Garden theatres. He became so dominant on the London comic stage that harlequinade clowns became known as "Joey", and both the nickname and Grimaldi's whiteface make-up design were, and still are, used by other types of clowns.
Charles Dickens wrote Grimaldi’s biography “The memoirs of Joseph Grimaldi” (1838) inbetween Oliver Twist and Nicholas Nickleby.
In 2010, Henry Krokatsis was appointed to create a public artwork in honour of Grimaldi and Charles Dibdin, Grimaldi's mentor. Two coffin shaped installations made of bronze floor tiles play musical notes when walked on. It was designed so it’s possible to play Hot Codlins, a song popularised by Grimaldi.
To find the co-ordinates, you must ask Grimaldi's mentor a question through the medium of dance! When you know the response, use a normal letter-number cipher so A=1, B=2....etc.

The answer is not "Hot Codlins" or anything else you can google. You will need to visit GZ. It is an incredibly well known tune worldwide and was a #1 in the UK and #2 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in the 1950s
