Built in 1905 for a wealthy businessman, the court ceased being a private residence in 1939. Since then it has had a varied career as refugee centre, care home, agricultural college etc. Part of the grounds became a golf course. Currently in business use. http://www.upminster.com/history/places/upminster-court.htm
