Reason for inclusion: The best candidate for The Abbey Grange.
Accessibility: Private Luxury apartments.
Description: A classical mansion with porticos, set in 300 acres of grounds. The mansion has been converted into 22 luxury apartments.
Comments: Marsham, the location given to The Abbey Grange, does not exist but was the name of a landowner in this area. The building matches much of Watson’s description. There are classical porticos, French windows leading onto the lawn, a pond close to the house and a number of lodges. The building is the correct distance from Chislehurst railway station. Bernard Davies suggested this was the best candidate for The Abbey Grange (link to Society Publication – Helping out Hopeless Hopkins).
