The area comprised by this scheme (No. 1) is 1,046 acres.
A considerable portion of this area will be developed by
the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust and the Co-partnership
Tenants, Ltd., it being anticipated that within the next few
years, a very rapid development will take place, the proposed
accommodation including a reasonable number of houses for
the working classes.

Surveyor, Mr. Chas. J. Jenkin, M.I.C.E., M.I.M.E., to prepare
a Town Planning Scheme for practically the whole of
the rest of the district, with the possible exclusion of certain
recently built-on areas, and the matter is still under the consideration
of the Council.
