Stone Hall, Little Canfield - Uttlesford

Stone Hall dates back to the C14 originally used as a religious retreat together with gardens and woods extending to 25 acres. The Countess of Warwick developed the garden and pleasure ground in the late C19. There is surviving ornamental planting as well the remains of a grotto at the former rockery area to the south of the Hall. Overall structural movement affecting the whole property is a matter for concern. Roofs are leaking locally and rainwater goods are in a poor state. The Local Planning Authority and Historic England to discuss next steps with the owner.
