Westfield College, Hampstead: A Snapshot of Everyday Life in the 1920s This photograph, taken in 1922, offers a glimpse into the daily life at Westfield College in Hampstead, London during the 1920s. The image showcases the beautiful buildings and lush grounds of the women's college, which was an integral part of the University of London. At the heart of the scene, Miss Lodge, the esteemed principal of Westfield College, is seen engaging in gardening activities. She is surrounded by her students, who are diligently tending to the orchard. The serene atmosphere of the college is further emphasized by the presence of the senior common room and the tennis courts in the background. The image captures the essence of the 1920s, a decade marked by progress and change. Westfield College, with its modern facilities and forward-thinking approach to women's education, embodied the spirit of the times. The students, dressed in their simple yet elegant clothing, reflect the growing sense of independence and self-confidence that characterized the era. The photograph also highlights the picturesque setting of Kippermore Avenue, where the college was located. The tree-lined streets and tranquil surroundings provided an ideal environment for academic pursuits and personal growth. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of Westfield College and the significant role it played in the education of women in London during the early 20th century. It invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the progress that has been made in women's education since then.
