Blake Hall is a country house and gardens in the Bobbingworth civil parish of Essex, England. The house incorporates an original fabric dating from the 17th century or older, but was largely rebuilt in the 18th century and later remodelled by George Basevi in 1822. It has been home to the Capel Cure family for over 200 years.〔("Living in Blake Hall is a daily history lesson" ), ''Brentwood Gazette'', 2 January 2012〕 After the operations centre at nearby RAF North Weald for Sector E, No. 11 Group RAF was bombed by the Luftwaffe in September 1940 during the Battle of Britain, floors and interior walls from a portion of Blake Hall were removed, and a new "ops room" (Operations Room) substituted. The Grade II * listed building is now set within its own conservation area. Part of the railway to Ongar opened in 1865, ran through land belonging to the Blake Hall estate, and Blake Hall station, now closed, was named after the hall, even though it is more than a mile to the south-west of the house itself. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blake Hall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
