Hampstead has a literary history that takes some beating and what better way of getting around than tracking down its literary greats, take in the village atmosphere, breathe in the fresh air , look up at the church steeples, wander in the narrow courtyards and curving streets.

There are over 75 plaques in Hampstead around half of which are the blue (formerly brown) round plaques erected by English Heritage, the Society of Arts, London County Council and Greater London Council. The other half are the distinctive black oval Hampstead plaques of The Heath & Hampstead Society.

Romantic poets such as Keats, Shelley, Byron and Coleridge all lived in Hampstead or nearby, as did the writers Robert Louis Stevenson, H. G. Wells, D. H. Lawrence, J. B. Priestley and the landscape artist John Constable.
