Loughton Hall

The architect was William Eden Nesfield, and it is grade II listed with Historic England.

The original Loughton Hall was the property of the Abbots of Waltham Abbey before passing to Mary Tudor shortly before she became Queen in 1553.

[2] A new Hall was built in 1878, designed by William Eden Nesfield in a mock Jacobean style.

[1] The last family member to live there was the Conservative politician Sir John Maitland, but it was requisitioned by the British Army during the Second World War to billet officers.

[2] It was sold to London County Council, and most of the land was used to build the Debden housing estate, with the Hall transferred to Essex County Council, and leased to Debden Community Association, and then given to Epping Forest College, but fell into disrepair by 2007.
