Viscount Hanworth

[1] The title was created on 17 January 1936 for the judge turned Conservative Member of Parliament who achieved the judicial position of Master of the Rolls, Ernest Pollock, 1st Baron Hanworth.

In a poor state of repair the large two-storey brick house was built following a fire in 1797 by the Duke of St Albans.

What remained of it was later bought with a few acres of attached lawns and fields by the first Viscount however quickly converted into the London Air Park.

Its later shape is now a mixture of public grassland and recreational amenities such as sports pitches funded by two local charitable clubs and a leisure centre, built by the London borough.
