These paintings and illustrations are from a centenary edition of Suburb News and provide an interesting insight into the early years of Hampstead Garden Suburb, the earliest depiction by William Ratcliffe dating back to 1914. The Peach Blossom trees beautifully portrayed by Dudley Heath are no longer in the Suburb due to their short life spans and propensity to disease.
