High Road, London, N2 0NW

Starting from East Finchley we walk back in time from 1939 to 1914 looking and the different inter-war architectural styles

This walk goes back in time, looking at architectural styles from between the wars on the North side of Hampstead Garden Suburb, starting at the Modernist East Finchley station and finishing with arts and crafts cottages. As well as admiring the architecture we discuss some of the people that the street names commemorate, many of whom relate to the Christian Socialist movement and the early Garden City Movement.

Marilyn Greene’s ‘From Streamform to Arts and Crafts’ was a fascinating walk through a less famous part of Hampstead Garden Suburb, built mainly in the thirties. She explained and drew our attention to all kinds of fascinating details on these lovely houses, backed up with anecdotes and names and dates. Very rewarding. 5* Trip Advisor Review July 2021
