Hendon Hall Hotel

Hendon Hall Hotel is a building dating from 1756 to 1759, now surrounded by modern additions and altered stable buildings. The main eastern front is three stories high with six windows, constructed of red brick, featuring a carved stone cornice and a balustraded parapet adorned with urns at the corners. The windows have wide moulded and carved stone surrounds. To the right of the center, there is a door with a Roman Doric door-case that includes columns, a frieze, and an entablature, which is now protected by a plain wooden porch.

In front of the facade is an impressive full-height portico, believed to have been acquired from Canons via Wanstead after its sale and demolition in 1822. This portico features four large red brick columns with rusticated bands and stone Corinthian capitals, supporting a carved stone entablature and pediment. The entablature slightly overlaps the top floor window surround on the right side.

On the south side facing the garden, there is a central full-height bow projection with three windows, flanked by two windows on either side. The first-floor windows next to the bow have been replaced by niches, which now contain statues. The window surrounds on this side are pedimented. The west front includes a semi-hexagonal bay with three windows to the right, a pedimented first-floor window, and a Roman Doric garden doorway.

To the north of the original house, there are large modern extensions, including a conservatory. The interior has been largely modified for hotel use, but features a notable carved staircase with fluted balusters that cluster to form the newels. The house was owned by David Garrick from 1756 to 1779.
