Hanworth Park House
Hanworth Park House was built between 1802 and 1835 as a replacement for the manor house that had served as hunting lodge for, among others, Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I.
It was used as a military hospital during the First World War, as a flying club between the wars, a hotel from 1936 to 1953 and an old people's home from 1953 to 1992.
The nursing home shut in 1992 and planning permission was granted in 2003 for the building to be converted into an 84-room hotel. This development never got off the ground and a further bid to open a 166-room hotel fell by the wayside in 2007. In 2013, now derelict, it is hoped by another developer to change it to hotel.
