Clare Hall

Clare Hall is a listed building in South Mimms with features from the 1700s that were later modified for medical purposes. The structure shows how rooms originally designed as living spaces were adapted and rearranged to serve hospital functions.

The building was constructed in 1745 as a private home and underwent several changes in use during the 1800s. Its transformation into medical facilities shows how healthcare services grew and became more organized over time.

The building shows how a private house transformed into a place for medical work over many generations. The different ways people have used it shape how visitors understand its role in the community today.

The building has protected status, which means any changes must follow strict rules. It sits in a location that is easy to reach from major roads in Hertfordshire.

The building housed a major research center for many years before its work moved to a new institution in London. This connection to scientific work is still visible today in how the spaces are organized.
