Keats House

Keats Grove
Hampstead
NW3 2RR

This is the house where John Keats lived from 1818 to 1820 with his friend Charles Brown. It is where he wrote some of his most intensely moving poems including 'Ode to a Nightingale'. Here he met and fell in love with Fanny Brawne.

It was from this house that, weakened by tuberculosis, he left England to spend the winter of 1820 - 1821 in the warmer climate of southern Italy. Keats never returned, but died in Rome in February of the following year, at the age of 25.
