Excerpt from A Collection of Curious and Interesting Epitaphs: Copied From the Existing Monuments of Distinguished and Noted Characters in the Cemeteries and Churches of Saint Pancras, Middlesex
The approach from the Highgate Road, at the top of Kentish Town, is by Swaine's Lane bounded on the north by St. Anne's Church, built at the cost of Miss Barnett to the memory of her brother, and above which is Holly Lodge and grounds, the resi dence of Baroness Burdett Coutts. On the south side is a row of modern villas, beyond which is Holly Village, built at the expense of Baroness Burdett Coutts, and intended by her to form a background to the view across her grounds. The villas were de signed by Mr. Darbishire, and are quite an ornament to this portion of the lane.
