Publisher's Synopsis
Since it was built for maritime merchant John Harle in 1729, Rainham Hall has been home to coal traders, a scientist vicar, Vogue photographer Anthony Denney, and even hosted a wartime nursery. For the very first time, this guidebook brings together our research about the lives of all those who have owned, lived in and shaped Rainham Hall. It also provides an insight into the Heritage Lottery Fund supported conservation project completed in 2015, and what the future holds for the Hall and its place at the heart of Rainham village.
