Rainham Hall, History museum in London Borough of Havering, England

The three-story Georgian house features brown and red brick construction, wrought-iron railings, and Dutch architectural elements throughout its design.

Built in 1729 for Captain John Harle, the Grade II* listed building served various purposes, including a boarding school and wartime nursery.

The interior displays period furnishings, Delft tiles in the fireplaces, and trompe-l'oeil frescoes that reflect 18th-century English domestic life.

The National Trust manages guided tours through the house museum, which includes access to a recently replanted two-acre garden with an orchard.

The property contains wrought-iron railings with the initials of John Harle and his wife Mary, representing exceptional 18th-century metalwork.
