Information |
Dancers Hill House is a Grade II listed house in Dancers Hill, in the north of Middlesex. The current house dates from around 1750–60, with later additions, and was probably built for Charles Ross, a Westminster builder, who leased 10 acres from David Hechstetter Jr. for 80 years in 1750.[1][2] The grotto north-east of the house is also Grade II listed.[3]
The house has been used as a school, and during the Second World War it was part of Camp 33, which housed Italian prisoners of war.[4]
In 2018, the owners, Nigel and Melanie Walsh, who bought the house in 1992, offered it for sale by raffle.[5]
