Summary[edit]

Description
English: Holly Village Highgate, London The main entrance to this model village of eight houses commissioned by Lady Burdett Coutts who lived in a splendid house close by. The family's diamond-shaped coat-of-arms is carved prominently in Portland stone on each building, and over the entrance arch is engraved, "Holly Village Erected By A. G. B. Coutts A.D. 1865." The sculptures on either side of the archway are meant to represent Lady Burdett-Coutts herself, and her governess and friend, Hannah Brown. Burdett-Coutts holds a dog, and Mrs Brown a dove.
