The Hill Garden and Pergola stretches for over 230 metres, and is a raised walkway of more than one level; some 20-30 feet high.
The house next door was once owned by Lord Leverhulme (1851-1925), who made a fortune manufacturing soaps from vegetable oils. He remodelled his house- called The Hill- extensively, even adding a ballroom. He created the Hill Garden and Pergola to offer extra space when entertaining his guests. It also added extra privacy, so that the riff-raff who traversed Hampstead Heath- which is, after all, a public right-of-way- couldn't see into his house!
I can't believe that I didn't even know about this place until stumbling across it by accident a few weeks ago. Come and see (what I now call) my secret garden, in the centre of London's biggest cottage!
As you know, I will always be a writer before anything else, and I have blogged about the Hill Garden and Pergola recently, link:-
