Sunshine Corner, Hampstead Garden Suburb

Introduction

The first phase was largely built between 1907 - 1912 and included Heathgate, at the end of which is a terrace that overlooks Hampstead Heath Extension, from which it is separated by a low brick wall. The terrace has a few trees and bushes against the wall that surrounds it on the other three sides. The wall continues either side of the terrace creating the boundary between the private gardens and the heath and was inspired by medieval town walls.
