Hampstead is a lovely big open space for walking with plenty of quiet areas and paths. Sadly marred by people who believe it's perfectly acceptable to allow their dogs freedom to roam uncontrolled, run up to other people and other dogs. Many take little notice of where their dog actually is or what it's doing. I saw several instances of a dog approaching a small child who was nervous and the owner ignored what was happening.On one occasion 2 people were sitting on a bench eating when a dog jumped up on to the bench and forced them to move.

Usually go there for walks or picnics and a swim in the pond. Great place to chill with friends. Always a go to for a relaxed afternoon.

....although we were allowed to meet with others outside, so we enjoyed a couple of hours with our daughter and partner. Sat on the heath in the sunshine, not much open but probably to be expected. Very few wearing masks. Nice afternoon though.
