Forty Hill House is a stunning example of Georgian architecture that sits proudly in the charming town of Enfield, London. This exquisite building was constructed in the 17th century and stands on the remains of an old Tudor palace that was built for Sir Nicholas Raynton, the lord mayor of London in the year 1529.  The present day house has been lovingly restored to its former glory and is beautifully decorated with period features, including ornate plasterwork, intricate mouldings, and imposing fireplaces.

The grandeur of the building is evident from the moment you step inside, with its sweeping staircase and elegant reception rooms. The central section of the building is designed in the shape of a Greek temple, with six elegant columns of the Corinthian order. The centerpiece of the house is the magnificent ballroom, which is situated at the heart of the mansion, and has been used to host many grand balls over the years.

The building has been used for a variety of purposes over the years, including a girls' school and a military barracks during World War I. These varied uses have resulted in numerous changes to the interior of the house, including the removal of some of the original features, but its overall grandeur and elegance have managed to survive these changes

One of the most striking features of Forty Hill House is the beautiful gardens that surround the property. The grounds have been carefully designed to complement the house and include a stunning walled garden, a water garden, and a collection of rare trees and shrubs. The gardens are open to the public and are a popular destination for visitors who are looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.

Forty Hill House is also home to a fascinating museum that tells the story of Enfield's history. The museum includes displays on local industries, such as the famous Whitbread brewery, and features artefacts from the town's past. Visitors can explore the museum's galleries and learn about the history of the area, from its early days as a small market town to its role in the Industrial Revolution.

The house is available for hire and can accommodate a range of events, from weddings and corporate events to private parties and exhibitions.
