York House, Town hall in Twickenham, England

York House stands near Richmond Road with stone walls, large windows, and formal gardens extending toward the River Thames waterfront.

The central part of the building dates from the 1630s, taking its name from the Yorke family who owned farming land in this area.

The building houses municipal offices while maintaining its historical character through preserved architectural elements from different construction periods.

The sunken lawn within the gardens provides space for outdoor theater performances during summer months and public gatherings throughout the year.

Indian industrialist Sir Ratan Tata owned the property from 1906 to 1914, hosting elaborate garden parties before returning to his homeland.
