You arrive on Primrose Hill as the city exhales — a gentle climb through grass and plane trees that opens to a sweeping skyline from Canary Wharf to the London Eye. The hill, roughly 65 metres high, pushes the city into perspective; below, terraces of Victorian and Edwardian homes lean in like an audience.
