Hampstead Grove
A street connecting White Stone Pond with Holly Mount and Hampstead High Street via Holly Hill. Running parallel with Heath Street, the White Stone Pond end has been blocked off to traffic to reduce its popularity as a rat run. The lamp post has clearly had a bit too much to drink over the christmas period!

The Mount Square
A narrow side street between Hampstead Grove and The Mount. A group of houses face each other across a widening of the road where it connect with The Mount, (where the red and black cars are parked). I'm not sure that it is wide enough to constitute a square though!

Fenton House: orchard
The orchard must look very much as it did 300 years ago with a mixture of old-established and younger fruit trees, naturalised flowers spreading below. It is protected by high wall which give it a wonderful air of seclusion and timelessness.

Fritillaries at Fenton House
The beautiful snake's head lily, Fritillaria meleagris, blooms in profusion in the damp grass beneath the apple trees in the orchard. This is an indigenous plant which has become very rare in the wild. The purple version has chequered petals.
