Hillfield Park has one of the best panoramas over London, in the capital.
In 1896, the local land was sold to a builder, James Edmondson of Highbury. He immediately laid out Queens Avenue (across The Limes estate) and began building the Broadway shopping parades.
Edmondson developed six estates in Muswell Hill – Hillfield, The Limes, The Elms, Fortis House, Wellfield and North Lodge. Prince’s Avenue and Queens Avenue were the initial residential streets to be constructed, paving the way for the development of Hillfield Park towards the end of the 1890s.
Continuing south of Muswell Road, Edmondson undertook the development of Wellfield Avenue, Elms Avenue and Dukes Avenue. To ensure convenient access to the station, a pathway was created between Nos. 26 and 28 Dukes Avenue. The North Lodge Estate saw the establishment of Woodberry Crescent between 1906 and 1910.
