View of the garden entrance gates and the front elevation of Harmondsworth Hall in Summerhouse Lane, Harmondsworth, looking north. The early eighteenth-century red-brick house (incorporating an earlier chimney), together with the southern garden wall and wooden entrance gates (since replaced with replica original wrought iron), are Grade II listed, listing number 1080123 and 1080124, respectively, and was originally set in four acres of gardens where it once hosted society garden parties, tea dances and barbecues. The Gable post office building is visible at the end of the lane, beyond left, seen with a Hillman Super Minx parked at the side of the lane, and another vehicle travelling west on the High Street, partially obscured by foliage. The hall is now a guest house, with the gardens mostly given over to a mid twentieth-century housing development, with all at risk of demolition should London Heathrow Airport proceed with plans to build a third runway.
