Hall Place and Gardens
About This Tour
Hall Place was built in 1537 for Sir John Champneys, a wealthy merchant and former Lord Mayor of London, and extended over a century later by Sir Robert Austen — the join between the two building phases is still visible in the brickwork today. Now Grade I listed and a Scheduled Monument, the house sits within 65 hectares of gardens that have won awards for their design and upkeep.
It's a quieter alternative to London's grander royal palaces — genuinely historic, rarely crowded, and set in some of southeast London's most attractive grounds.
