"As a fan of this season and its multifarious colours & climates, I find the best place to observe such a beautiful period of chance is Kenwood House in Northwest London. The nearest tube is Hampstead on the Northern Line and the walk is well worth what lies at the end. It’s free entry to the public and The Spaniards Inn nearby provides a fitting refreshment as one of London’s oldest pubs, in particular the site where Highwayman Dick Turpin evaded his captors by jumping a five bar gate. Or rather, his horse did, since motorbikes were fairly sparse back then."-Hal
