Collins's Farm, North End, Hampstead

Collins's Farm was a small weatherboarded house in North End, situated on the east side of Hampstead Way. Part of Hampstead Hill can be seen on the right and, in the left distance, open fields stretch to horizon. A man with a stick walks along the riverbank, while two men can be seen assisting with the harvest in a field on the right.

During the early 1820s, Linnell and his family spent two summers in cottages on Hampstead Heath and between 1824 and 1828, they lived at Collins's Farm itself. The farm's most famous occupant, however, was Charles Dickens, who lived there for a short time in 1837.
