Boston Manor House

One of the capital's lesser known gems, the three-storey historic building has recently been restored and refurbished so it can enjoy a sustainable future and be removed from the Heritage At Risk Register. The house is located in Boston Manor Park, which was opened to the public in 1924.

Explore the historic mansion

Once inside the Grade I listed building you will discover beautiful historic interiors, including the original ornate plasterwork. Rather than restoring the whole house to the Jacobean period, instead, where there was the strongest surviving evidence of a decorative style in a room, that room was restored to the corresponding period, meaning there are rooms decorated in 17th, 18th and 19th Century styles.

Outside space

The house is set in 34 acres of parkland sloping down to the nearby River Brent. Wander down to the lake, admire ancient cedar trees, or follow the nature trail. There is also a children’s playground, a wildflower meadow and walled garden.

Spend a relaxing day in the outskirts of London, taking in the historic atmosphere of the house and park, discovering something new in the two community exhibition galleries, or grabbing a cuppa in the café.
