Frognal is a place in London in the London Borough of Camden between Hampstead and West Hampstead. It is also the name of the major road in the area. Despite the name, there are no frogs in Frognal. More's the pity.

History

Frognal has a diverse architecture, with many architecturally interesting buildings.

Transport
