Title
Interior of Warren Wood on Shooter's Hill
Description
Entrance hall at Warren Wood, Shooter's Hill, including arches and marble column at the foot of the stairs. Built some time between 1861 and 1871, the property first appears on the 1871 census in the hands of Edward Archer Wilde, a barrister. It is latterly occupied by Leveson Francis Vernon-Harcourt, a civil engineer who specialised in harbours and river engineering, and subsequently by Henry Kinsey, a leather manufacturer originally from Bermondsey. By 1911 the house belonged to army colonel and local historian Arthur Henry Bagnold and his family, including his daughter Enid, a famous author, who wrote National Velvet, the book was later turned into a film which first made Elizabeth Taylor famous. After World War II the house became a children's home, until it was demolished in the late 1980s.
