Broomfield House, Grade II* listed building in Palmers Green, England.

The two-story timber-framed structure features a baroque oak staircase, classical mythological paintings, and multiple expansions from its original 16th-century design.

The Jackson family owned Broomfield House for 150 years starting from 1624, during which time they added the grand staircase and commissioned murals by Gerard Lanscroon.

The building served as Southgate County School from 1907 to 1910 and later became the area's first maternity center in 1917.

The structure, damaged by fires in 1984 and 1993, remains surrounded by scaffolding while discussions about restoration and community use continue.

The house contains preserved fragments of classical mythological murals created by Flemish artist Gerard Lanscroon during the early 18th century.
