The Hill Garden Bridge

The Hill Garden Bridge is a Grade II* listed structure located over a public footpath that connects Inverforth Close to Hampstead West Heath. It was built around 1912 by Thomas H. Mawson as part of a garden scheme for Lord Leverhulme at The Hill, which is now known as Inverforth House. The bridge links the Central Temple Summerhouse with the western arm of the Cruciform Pergola. It features brick and stone banded abutments, a single stone arch with keystones on each side, and stone parapets that include balustraded sections over the arch. Historically, the area now known as The Hill Garden was divided when the house was converted into a hospital, and this part of the garden is now accessible to the public.
