Tudor Barn Eltham is all that remains of the country mansion that was
built for William Roper and Margaret More, daughter of Thomas More,
Lord Chancellor to Henry VIII and is surrounded by a medieval moat and
nearby scented gardens. The venue is situated in thirteen acres of
beautiful award winning gardens and has stood on this ancient site,
which is connected historically with the Tudor Monarchs´ residence at
nearby Eltham Palace, since 1525.
Sir Gregory Page acquired the Well Hall Estates from the Roper family
in 1733 and a new house was built between the moat and Well Hall Road.
Its most famous occupant was children’s author Edith Nesbit, who wrote
The Railway Children, and lived here from 1899 until 1922.
The 16th Century Tudor Barn is a haven of rural peace just twenty
minutes from Central London, and is a fantastic destination venue for
excellent food and drinks. as well as being the perfect setting to host
events including weddings, parties, conference, wakes and special
occasion.
