Hall Place
The Official Magazine Britain|November - December 2020
This marvellous mishmash of Tudor, Georgian and other eras is surrounded by equally eclectic gardens
LAWRENCE ALEXANDER
Hall Place

Hall Place is a charming chameleon of a building. Approached from the east, this Kent manor is a solid Tudor edifice, complete with hefty oaken door and sober features. From the south, a tasteful Stuart facade with understated doorway announces the seat of a true country gentleman. From the west, black and white chequers recall medieval fantasy, while two enormous Tudor windows take up much of the north side. These same windows allow for a magnificent, double-storey, light-filled Great Chamber, complete with minstrels’ gallery and sturdy fireplace. Yet much of Hall Place’s timeless elegance is thanks to an unlikely building material: rubble.
