Hampstead (/ˈhæmpstɪd, -stɛd/) is an area in London, which lies 4 miles (6.4 km)

northwest of Charing Cross, and extends from the A5 road (Roman Watling
Street) to Hampstead Heath, a large, hilly expanse of parkland. The area forms the
northwest part of the London Borough of Camden, a borough in Inner London which
for the purposes of the London Plan is designated as part of Central London.[1]
Hampstead is known for its intellectual, liberal, artistic, musical, and literary
associations. It has some of the most expensive housing in the London area.
Hampstead has more millionaires within its boundaries than any other area of the
United Kingdom.[2]

History[edit]
Toponymy[edit]
The name comes from the Anglo-Saxon words ham and stede, which means, and is
a cognate of, the Modern English "homestead".
To 1900[edit]

Early records of Hampstead can be found in a grant by King Ethelred the Unready to

the monastery of St. Peter's at Westminster (AD 986), and it is referred to in
the Domesday Book (1086)[3] as being in the Middlesex hundred of Ossulstone.
The growth of Hampstead is generally traced back to the 17th century. Trustees of
the Well started advertising the medicinal qualities of the chalybeate waters (water
impregnated with iron) in 1700. Although Hampstead Wells was initially most
successful and fashionable, its popularity declined in the 1800s due to competition
with other fashionable London spas. The spa was demolished in 1882, although a
water fountain was left behind.
Hampstead started to expand following the opening of the North London Railway in
the 1860s (now the London Overground with passenger services operated
by Transport for London), and expanded further after the Charing Cross, Euston &
Hampstead Railway opened in 1907 (now part of London Underground's Northern
line) and provided fast travel to central London.
Much luxurious housing was created during the 1870s and 1880s, in the area that is
now the political ward of Frognal & Fitzjohns. Much of this housing remains to this
day.
20th century[edit]
In the 20th century, a number of notable buildings were created including:

 Hampstead Underground station (1907), the

deepest station on the Underground network
 Isokon building (1932)
 Hillfield Court (1932)
 2 Willow Road (1938)
 Swiss Cottage Central Library (1964)
 Royal Free Hospital (mid-1970s)

Keats House, Hampstead, where Keats wrote his Ode to a Nightingale

Cultural attractions in the area include the Freud Museum, Keats House, Kenwood

House, Fenton House, the Isokon building, Burgh House (which also houses
Hampstead Museum), and the Camden Arts Centre. The large Victorian Hampstead
Town Hall was recently converted and extended as an arts centre. [4]
On 14 August 1975 Hampstead entered the UK Weather Records with the Highest
155-min total rainfall at 169 mm. As of November 2008 this record remains.
The average price of a property in Hampstead was £1.5 million in 2018.[5]

Geography[edit]

Hampstead High Street sign

A map showing the wards of Hampstead Metropolitan Borough as they appeared in 1916.

Hampstead became part of the County of London in 1889 and in 1899

the Metropolitan Borough of Hampstead was formed. The Town Hall on Haverstock
Hill, which was also the location of the Register Office, can be seen in newsreel
footage of many celebrity civil marriages. In 1965 the metropolitan borough was
abolished and its area merged with that of the Metropolitan Borough of Holborn and
the Metropolitan Borough of St Pancras to form the modern-day London Borough of
Camden.
For some, the area represented by Hampstead today consists principally of the
(electoral) wards of Hampstead Town and Frognal & Fitzjohns; others espouse a
broader definition, encompassing South Hampstead, Belsize Park and West
Hampstead.

Politics[edit]

Hampstead is part of the Hampstead and Kilburn constituency, formed at the 2010

general election. It was formerly part of the Hampstead and Highgate constituency.
Since May 2018 the area has been represented on Camden Council
by Conservative Party councillors Oliver Cooper, Maria Higson and Stephen Stark.
Hampstead Liberalism[edit]
The area has a significant tradition of educated liberal humanism, often referred to
(often disparagingly) as "Hampstead Liberalism". In the 1960s, the figure of the
Hampstead Liberal was notoriously satirised by Peter Simple of the Daily
Telegraph in the character of Lady Dutt-Pauker, an immensely wealthy aristocratic
socialist whose Hampstead mansion, Marxmount House, contained an original pair
of Bukharin's false teeth on display alongside precious Ming vases, neo-
constructivist art, and the complete writings of Stalin.[6] Michael Idov of The New
Yorker stated that the community "was the citadel of the moneyed liberal
intelligentsia, posh but not stuffy." [7] As applied to an individual, the term "Hampstead
Liberal" is not synonymous with "champagne socialist" but carries some of the same
connotations. The term is also rather misleading.
As of 2018, the component wards of Hampstead (Swiss Cottage, Frognal and
Fitzjohns, Hampstead Town and Belsize) have mixed representation. Hampstead
Town and Frognal and Fitzjohns wards elect three Conservative councillors, Swiss
Cottage elects three Labour councillors, while Belsize is represented by two Liberal
Democrat and one Conservative councillor.
Swiss Cottage is a competitive Conservative and Labour marginal, and Frognal and
Fitzjohns is a safe Conservative ward. Hampstead Town (including the area of
Hampstead Village and South End Green) has seen a number of tightly fought
Conservative and Liberal Democrat contests, and the ward has had mixed
representation in recent decades. In the most recent election, the highest scoring
candidates for each of the three parties in Belsize were within 200 votes of each
other.
Brexit referendum[edit]
During the 2016 United Kingdom European Union membership referendum, 75% of
voters across the London Borough of Camden voted to remain in the EU.[8] Following
the result many commentators used Hampstead as an archetype of the type of area
that preferred to remain in the EU. This point was often made in alliterative contrast
to poor post-industrial northern towns such as Hartlepool and Hull, that preferred to
leave.[9][10]

Sites[edit]
To the north and east of Hampstead, and separating it from Highgate, is London's
largest ancient parkland, Hampstead Heath, which includes the well-known and
legally-protected view of the London skyline from Parliament Hill. The Heath, a major
place for Londoners to walk and "take the air", has three open-air public swimming
ponds; one for men, one for women, and one for mixed bathing, which were
originally reservoirs for drinking water and the sources of the River Fleet. The bridge
pictured is known locally as 'The Red Arches' or 'The Viaduct', built in fruitless
anticipation of residential building on the Heath in the 19th century.
Local activities include major open-air concerts on summer Saturday evenings on
the slopes below Kenwood House, the FT Weekend Festival,[11] book and poetry
readings, fun fairs on the lower reaches of the Heath, period harpsichord recitals at
Fenton House, Hampstead Scientific Society and Hampstead Photographic Society.
The largest employer in Hampstead is the Royal Free Hospital, Pond Street, but
many small businesses based in the area have international significance. George
Martin's AIR recording studios, in converted church premises in Lyndhurst Road, is a
current example, as Jim Henson's Creature Shop was before it relocated to
California.
The area has some remarkable architecture, such as the Isokon building in Lawn
Road, a Grade I listed experiment in collective housing, once home to Agatha
Christie, Henry Moore, Ben Nicholson and Walter Gropius. It was recently restored
by Notting Hill Housing Trust.

St Stephen's Rosslyn Hill (Church of England) was built in 1869 by Samuel Sanders
Teulon on the Pond Street side of Hampstead Green. Deconsecrated in 1978 and
stripped of much of its assets it was boarded up and subsequently invaded by
squatters. In 1998 it was leased to the St Stephen's Restoration and Preservation
Trust which, after 11 years of fundraising and grants returned it to the community as
a centre for education, weddings, public meetings and social celebrations together
with occasional classical music concerts. Winning an English Heritage award for the

Gallery has been in Hampstead since 1986 and has represented artists like Ian
Berry, Philip Jackson, Chuck Elliott, Walasse Ting, and Sergei Chepik over the
years.[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38]

Public houses[edit]
Hampstead is well known for its traditional pubs, such as The Holly Bush, gas-lit until
recently;[39][40] the Spaniard's Inn, Spaniard's Road, where highwayman Dick
Turpin took refuge; The Old Bull and Bush in North End; and The Old White
Bear (formerly Ye Olde White Bear).[41] Jack Straw's Castle, on the edge of the Heath
near Whitestone Pond, has now been converted into residential flats. Others include:

Restaurants[edit]
Hampstead has served as a testing ground for a number of cafes and restaurants
that later became successful chains. Those include Giraffe World Kitchen, Gails and
'Bagel Street'. As a consequence, Hampstead has an eclectic mix of restaurants
ranging from French to Thai. After over a decade of controversy and legal action
from local residents, McDonald's was finally allowed to open in Hampstead in 1992,
after winning its right in court, and agreeing to a previously unprecedented re-design
of the shop front, reducing the conspicuousness of its facade and logo, [51] It closed in
November 2013.[52]
Shopping[edit]
Hampstead High Street is filled with boutiques, where one can shop for woman's
clothing, art supplies, health food items, and home wears. Specialty shops
like Venchi, the Italian ice cream and chocolatier and the popular teen brand Brandy
Melville have local outlets. Parisian ladies fashion, Zadig and Voltaire, Maje, and
Ba&sh, also have local boutiques.

Hampstead's rural feel lends itself for use in film, a notable example being The
Killing of Sister George (1968) starring Beryl Reid and Susannah York. The opening
sequence has Reid's character June wandering through the streets and alleyways of
Hampstead, west of Heath Street, around The Mount Square. The Marquis of
Granby pub, in which June drinks at the opening of the film, was actually The Holly
Bush,[39] at 22 Holly Mount. Another example is The Collector (1965),
starring Terence Stamp and Samantha Eggar, where the kidnap sequence is set in
Mount Vernon.[53]
Some scenes from An American Werewolf in London (1981) are shot on Hampstead
Heath, Well Walk and Haverstock Hill.
More recently Kenwood House is the set of the "film-within-the-film" scene of Notting
Hill (1999).[54] Outdoor scenes in The Wedding Date (2005), starring Debra Messing,
feature Parliament Hill Fields on the Heath, overlooking west London. Parliament Hill
also features in Notes on a Scandal (2006) together with the nearby areas of Gospel
Oak and Camden Town. Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) features the old
Hampstead Town Hall on Haverstock Hill. The film Scenes of a Sexual
Nature (2006) was filmed entirely on Hampstead Heath, covering various
picturesque locations such as the 'Floating Gardens' and Kenwood House.
A musical specifically focusing on the area, Les Bicyclettes de Belsize (1968), tells
the story of a young man's cycle journey around Hampstead. After crashing into a
billboard poster, he falls in love with the fashion model depicted on it. In February
2016, principal photography for Robert Zemeckis' war film Allied starring Brad Pitt
and Marion Cotillard, began with the family home located on the corners of
Christchurch Hill and Willow Road in Hampstead.

Demography[edit]
The 2011 census showed that the population of Hampstead Town ward was 80%
white (54% British, 24% Other, 2% Irish). The largest non-white group, Other Asian,
claimed 4%. The religious data of the area showed that 35% was Christian, 27%
irreligious and 10% Jewish.[55] The whole town had a population of 48,858 in 2011
and includes the wards of Frognal, Hampstead Town, Belsize and Swiss Cottage. [56]

Transport[edit]

Hampstead underground station

Rail and Tube[edit]

Hampstead station is on one transport line, the Northern Line which has connections
to other lines at Camden Town and Kings Cross station among others.
The London Overground (North London line) also runs through Hampstead
Heath and Finchley Road & Frognal.
Stations in Hampstead include:

 Belsize Park 
 Finchley Road   
 Finchley Road & Frognal 
 Hampstead 
 Hampstead Heath 
 Swiss Cottage 
All stations are in London fare zone 2, except Hampstead, which is in both zones 2
and 3.[57] Hampstead station serves the north western part of the wider district, near
Hampstead's traditional centre. All the other three stations in the area are located to
the south.
In the 1860s, the Metropolitan and St John's Wood Railway was authorised to build a
branch line from Swiss Cottage to Hampstead with its terminus to be located at the
junction of Flask Walk, Well Walk and Willow Road. Financial difficulties meant that
the project was cancelled in 1870.[58]
Bus[edit]
There is a major bus terminus near Hampstead Heath station (near the Royal Free
Hospital), served by London Buses routes 24 and 168. Routes 46, 268, C11,
and N5 also serve the Royal Free Hospital.[59]
Hampstead tube station and High Street are served by routes 46, 268, 603, and N5.
Route 210 runs along the northernmost rim of Hampstead, stopping at Jack Straw's
Castle.[59]
Finchley Road is served by routes 13, 113, 187, 268, C11, and N113.[60]
Cycling[edit]
Cycling infrastructure in Hampstead is poor. In early 2016, Transport for
London (TfL) consulted with the public on a new "Cycle Superhighway" (CS11)
between Swiss Cottage and the West End, which provide an unbroken,
predominantly traffic-free cycle route from Hampstead to Central London. The
scheme was cancelled following court action from the City of Westminster in 2018.[61]
There are bus lanes along the A41/Finchley Road that cyclists are allowed to use.
A shared-use path runs from Parliament Hill to Jack Straw's Castle/Highgate through
the centre of Hampstead Heath.[62]
Road[edit]
The A41/Finchley Road passes north–south through Hampstead. The road links the
area directly to Marylebone and Oxford Street to the south. The route runs
northbound to Golders Green, Brent Cross, the M1 motorway, and Watford.
The A502/Hampstead High Street runs from Camden Town in the south, through
Hampstead, to Golders Green and Hendon in the north-west.
Nearest places[edit]
The Royal Free Hospital and A&E is in Hampstead.

Notable residents[edit]

Sigmund Freud's final residence, now dedicated to his life and work as the Freud Museum, 20 Maresfield
Gardens, Hampstead.
Hampstead has long been known as a residence of the intelligentsia, including
writers, composers, ballerinas and intellectuals, actors, artists and architects – many
of whom created a bohemian community in the late 19th century. After 1917, and
again in the 1930s, it became base to a community of avant garde artists and writers
and was host to a number of émigrés and exiles from the Russian Revolution and
Nazi Europe.
Blue plaques[edit]
There are at least 60 English Heritage blue plaques in Hampstead commemorating
the many diverse personalities that have lived there. [63]
