1. Looking down Hampstead High Street, to the left is the Tube Station – the deepest on the network.





2. As far as high street architecture goes, I don’t think these buildings are anything special – in fact there are many downmarket areas of London that, in my opinion, have a much more impressive high street buildings than Hampstead – nevertheless, still very nice.





3. Further down the High Street it loses the Victorian oppressiveness, and becomes more of a quaint little village

28. I’ve never seen so many Toyota Prius’s in my life – the good residents of Hampstead are doing their best to save the planet….how admirable of them.





29. G-Whizz, check out the little car

No doubt these houses cost a bomb






Pretty little cottages (which no doubt cost a bomb)





A large house that looks haunted - which no doubt cost a bomb (you get the idea, this is Hampstead).













This kinda looks Mediterranean i think...


























Trellick Tower in the distance..





Moving over to West Hampstead now - about a mile or so from Hampstead Village, but just as nice (and the houses still cost a bomb).


















And finally, i think this hippy mobile is following me around - i constantly see it driving past me, or parked in different areas of North London...its starting to scare me.
