Title
Manor House Hotel in Upper Richmond Road
Description
A partly obscured view of Manor House Hotel, taken from the Upper Richmond Road, Barnes, Richmond upon Thames. The hotel is sited in a triangle of land with Queen's Ride to the left of the image, out of view. The two-storey building was erected in the late-nineteenth to early-twentieth century. A sign advertising the hotel can be seen behind a long section of boundary fencing and another sign advertises luxury flats to be built on the site. There are mature trees within the hotel grounds and a street lamp is in view. The triangle of land on which the hotel sits once housed Barnes Workhouse, built in 1778. This closed in 1836 and the site became a market garden and later a hotel. The hotel has since been demolished and replaced by Roehampton Court Flats, a seven-storey block of residential accommodation. The money raised and invested from the sale of the land to build the flats is still managed today by the Barnes Workhouse Trust and used for local good causes. The land lies within the Barnes Common Conservation Area.
