Ewell Court House, completed in 1879, was financed from the profits of gunpowder mills sited south of the Hogsmill River between 1754 and 1875 (the produce of which was said to have been used in the American Civil War). Ewell Court House and its grounds was purchased by Epsom & Ewell Borough Council on the 2 March 1935 for £5,490. The house is currently used for weddings, receptions and functions. The newer building next door is used by the NHS.
