Abstract:		 In August 2017, Heritage Planning Services Ltd was commissioned to prepare a DBA for land at 48 Chestnut Grove, Barnet, EN4 8PU (the Study Area). Planning permission is being sought for the demolition of the present house and construction of residential housing. This desk-based assessment has confirmed that the Study Area was part of the Little Grove estate since at least the 18th century, and possibly as early as the mid 16th century. A house has been associated with the estate since at least the 17th century; it was replaced in the 18th century and remodelled in the 19th century, but the exact location of the earlier house is not known. There has been a pond at the present location since at least 1817 and possibly since at least 1694, though the suggestion that it was designed or remodelled by 'Capability' Brown in the late 1760s or early 1770s could not be firmly established. Brown is known to have undertaken work for the then owner, but the details of that work are unknown. The pond was reshaped in or shortly after 1828, during a phase of landscape remodelling. The present garden also incorporates part of the wall of the estate kitchen garden, which is shown on a plan of 1817 and almost certainly dates to the later 18th century. An inspection of the garden revealed two further garden features likely to be later 18th century in date, together with an underground chamber that could be an air-raid shelter associated with military or civil defence use of the Study Area during World War II. Little Grove estate was sold in the 1930s, the country house was demolished, and the grounds subsequently used for housing and a secondary school. The present house at no. 48 is a post-war construction. The Study Area incorporates the pond and part of the brick kitchen garden wall, two of only three confirmed surviving features of a former designed landscape that dates to at least 1817.
