| dbo:abstract | Die Church Row ist eine Straße im Londoner Stadtteil Hampstead, Bezirk Camden. Sie befindet sich zwischen Frognal, einer Straße im Westen, und der Fitzjohn's Avenue im Osten. Die einzigen Straßen, die von der Church Row abzweigen, sind Frognal Gardens und Holly Walk, die beide in Richtung Norden führen. Einen großen Teil des Bereichs südlich der Straße nimmt das Grundstück der Parish Church of St John-at-Hampstead ein, von der die Straße einst ihren Namen bezog. Zu dem kircheneigenen Gelände gehört auch der Friedhof St John-at-Hampstead, auf dem eine Reihe von bedeutenden Persönlichkeiten ihre letzte Ruhestätte fanden. Hierzu zählen der Schriftsteller und Historiker Sir Walter Besant (1836–1901), der Maler John Constable (1776–1837), der Komiker Peter Cook (1937–1995), die Kinderbuchautorin Eleanor Farjeon (1881–1965), der Politiker Hugh Gaitskell (1906–1963), der Erfinder John Harrison (1693–1776), die Schauspielerin Kay Kendall (1926–1959), der Schriftsteller George du Maurier (1834–1896) und sein Sohn, der Schauspieler Gerald du Maurier (1873–1934), der Politiker Frank Soskice, Baron Stow Hill (1902–1979) und der Schauspieler Adolf Wohlbrück (1896–1967). Die Church Row gilt als eine der schönsten Straßen Londons mit einer nahezu kompletten georgianischen Bauweise, deren ursprüngliche Details größtenteils bis heute erhalten geblieben sind. Die Straße existierte unter ihrem heutigen Namen nachweislich bereits 1728. Eine Reihe von Künstlern und Autoren unterhielt hier zeitweise ihr Domizil.

The street runs from Frognal in the west to Heath Street in the east. St John-at-Hampstead and its additional burial ground is at the west end of the street. Mavis Norris in her Book of Hampstead describes the street as "the show piece of Hampstead" and it "is almost completely preserved in its early eighteenth-century elegance". The 1998 London: North edition of the Pevsner Architectural Guides, described Church Row as "the best street in Hampstead" thought it was "better still" before the construction of Gardnor Mansions at the Heath Street end. Ian Nairn, in his 1966 book Nairn's London describes the design of the street as "complete freedom which results from submission to a common style. A rough gentlemen's agreement about heights and size...and you can do what you want". Nairn was critical of the number of parked cars and felt that the trees that run down in the middle of Church Row broke up the space of the street. Nairn felt that the south side of Church Row was more "austere and formal" than the north side which was "much more ribald". Anne Thackeray described the street as 'an avenue of Dutch ed-faced houses leading demurely to the old church tower that stands guarding its graves in the flowery churchyard'. A line of trees runs down the middle of the street. The trees have been present since at least the development of the south side of the street in the 1720s. Six lime trees were planted in the mid 19th century, of which only one still stands, at the furthest end from the church. The present trees were planted in the 1970s, and are maintained by the London Borough of Camden. (en) |
