was originally West Hampstead Avenue.
In 1899 six houses and a block of flats were built at the junction with West Hampstead Avenue (later Heath Drive), a new road skirting the demesne from
Finchley Road to
Redington Road; 20 houses and a block of flats were built there between 1897 and 1900 and another four between 1905 and 1907, mostly designed by C. H. B. Quennell.
Other new roads included
Bracknell Gardens, between Heath Drive and
Frognal Lane, where 23 houses were built between 1905 and 1912, Barby (later Oakhill) Avenue, between
Bracknell Gardens and
Redington Road, where 10 houses were built between 1907 and 1909,
Templewood Avenue, between Heath Drive and
West Heath Road, where 13 houses, including some handsome ones by Quennell, were built between 1910 and 1912, and
Redington Gardens, from
Templewood Avenue to
Redington Road, laid out in 1911 where four houses were built in 1913. Individual houses were built in Heath Drive in 1922 and 1933.
The large new houses were said to ’bristle with . . . respectable establishment figures’. The literary forger Thomas Wise (1859-1937) lived at no. 25 Heath Drive from 1910.
