A north London street thought to be one of the wealthiest roads in the world will be temporarily closed from next month.  

The closure in The Bishops Avenue has been scheduled to start on September 10 to allow for necessary water works to take place. 

Also known as 'Billionaires' Row', the exclusive street connects Hampstead Heath with East Finchley. 

Barnet Council issued a public notice on August 22 warning road users of the works to fit a new water connection in the street.

The Bishops Avenue is believed to be home to over 60 residential properties, with the closure set to start outside number 25. 

Access will be blocked from 8am on September 10, with works scheduled to last for an estimated four days. 

Motorists will be forced to travel via alternative routes on the A1, Winnington Road, and Hampstead Lane.
