of the style of beauty which prevails in the grounds at Kenwood. Proceeding 

 from Hampstead on the road towards Highgate, at the end of Hampstead 

 Heath, we arrive at the tavern known as the Spaniards {fig. 320. a), where 

 the Kenwood property commences. Here there is a considerable descent 

 along the road, while the ground on the right-hand rises gently, and that on 

 the left falls considerably. At 6 is a lodge, which leads to the farm offices, 

 which are in the form of an octagon, and were built from a design given by a 

 celebrated agriculturist, Marshall. The arable farm lands lie chiefly on the 

 opposite side of the road. At c is the principal approach to the mansion ; 

 and at d there is another lodge, which may be called that of the Highgate 

 appi'oach, and also that of the road to the domestic and stable offices. The 

 following are further details of the plan : —
