Letter dated 2nd March 1909, in which Henrietta Barnett makes an offer to donate fruit trees to the Suburb estate, many of which are still fruiting today.
Born in 1856 Henrietta Barnett founded the Hampstead Garden Suburb in 1906 as an area to the north of London with affordable housing and green spaces so the working clas did not have to live in the slums she experienced in Whitechapel.
