Chigwell Hall is a Grade II listed[1] house in Chigwell, Essex. It is situated on Roding Lane within 42 acres of grounds.[2] It was designed by the English architect Richard Norman Shaw - his only house in Essex[3] - for Shaw's client, Alfred Savill, founder of the Savills estate agency, and built in 1876.Шаблон:Sfn The building and grounds have been owned by the Metropolitan Police Service since 1967 and is the current site of the force's sports and social club.[4]
Chigwell Hall was built on the grounds to the south west of Chigwell Manor, a medieval building in Roding Lane which had belonged to the Branston family for two generations. In 1881 Savill decided to abandon the older house and moved into Chigwell Hall.[5] It is located on High Road, Chigwell, near to the Kings Head,[2] a 17th-century public house made famous by Charles Dickens who used it as a basis for The Maypole Inn, for his novel Barnaby Rudge.[6] As well as being the residence of the Metropolitan Police's sports and social club, Chigwell Hall is also used for business functions, wedding ceremonies, and is the venue of a restaurant.[2]
The Pevsner Architectural Guides describes the hall as "especially good, surprising in its freshness and looking as it might well [have been built] twenty-five years later".Шаблон:Sfn
