In 1645 it came to Earl of Lauderdale (hence its name) as his wife’s inheritance. The house became a convalescent home for St. Bartholomew’s hospital in 1872.[3] In 1882 the then owner, Sir Sydney Waterlow, the famous printer, donated it ’for the enjoyment of Londoners’. It is a Grade II* listed building.
