Title
Interior of Holcombe House in The Ridgeway
Description
The library at Holcombe House, The Ridgeway, Mill Hill. View along the room with an elaborate neoclassical moulded plaster ceiling and frieze, the former apparently with paintings inside lozenge shaped mouldings. Bookcases are arranged against the walls and there is a heavy pedestal table in the middle with magazines on it. The fireplace has been boxed in and houses an electric 'coal effect' fire. Above this hangs a painting of the Madonna and Child in an elaborate gilded frame and from the ceiling hangs a sparse light fitment with bare bulbs. The villa was built in 1775-78 for Sir John Anderson, the Lord Mayor of London in 1797, by John Johnson of Leicester. In the mid-nineteenth century it became the headquarters of the Missionary Institute and is now part of the Catholic School of St Mary's Abbey. Holcombe House is Grade II listed, listing number 1064845.
