Old Hampstead Rediscovered III: The Taverns of Hampstead The latest of The Heath and Hampstead Society's stunning exhibitions of old paintings, prints, and photographs from the collection of Camden Local Studies and Archives Centre in Holborn. Many of Hampstead's pubs have been in existence for hundreds of years but, as in many communities, there has been a roll call of losses in recent times, and so, in addition to the pubs we now know so well, this exhibition will chronicle some that have sadly been lost over time.

Support team BH! With considerably less talent than team GB, but by no means less enthusiasm, the Burgh House squad cycled, hiked and camped their way from Constable's birthplace to his resting place to raise much needed funds. But our work isn't done, and our fundraising page will be open throughout the exhibition. Please support Burgh House by clicking on the purple button.
