Kenwood Estate

< Back to our Green Spaces

Located towards the North East edge of Hampstead Heath, the Kenwood Estate is managed by English Heritage. The Neoclassical villa Kenwood House is surrounded by spectacular scenery, ancient woodland and heritage gardens.

Kenwood is a designed landscape, where nature has been carefully moulded to aesthetic effect. The underlying geology, hilly terrain, and human activity (such as landscape design, quarrying, tree planting and pond creation) all help to create the unique landscape we see today.

You can view Kenwood’s Draft Conservation Management Plan HERE.
