KENWOOD, London
Kenwood is situated along the edges of Hampstead
Heath. In North London this is THE place to get back to nature.
Strewn with picnickers, cyclists, families and the rest, the
heath is large enough and has enough copses, hills and mounds
that a quiet spot is never far away. 'Chronicles of Narnia'
author, CS Lewis, lived near Hampstead Heath and local folklore
asserts that it was its picturesque rises, ponds and woodland
glades which inspired his mystical land.
Hampstead Heath is renowned as a rich conservation
area and parts of it are designated as areas of scientific
interest by English Nature. Hoards flock to the refreshing
waters of the Heath's celebrated ponds in the summer months
whilst in the colder months it's more rewarding to while away
an afternoon feeding the ducks or exploring the lush woodland,
bogs, hedgerows and grassland.
Along the edges of the heath a number of
attractions will attempt to lure you away. There's the lido
at the south, Kenwood House at the north, South End Green
and Hampstead Village at the west, and Highgate to the east.
There are also plenty of pubs dotted around the edge - the
Spaniards Inn (Spaniards Road), the Holly Bush (22 Holly Mount)
or the Freemason's Arms (32 Downshire Hill) are all worthy
of a visit.
The heath doesn't look quite as rural as
when Constable painted it, but nonetheless, it is as close
to rural as you're going to get in a capital city.
