Welcome to Grosvenor Lodge

Grosvenor Lodge is a city owned, self sustained historic estate. It is a home and centre for non-profit heritage environmental groups.

It is now the London Regional Center for Heritage and the Environment. The LARCHE is administered by the Heritage London Foundation, a non profit corporation supporting heritage and environmental conservation. In addition to Grosvenor Lodge, HLF also operates the Elsie Perrin Williams Estate, another historic London property, as a reception center.

Grosvenor Lodge was built in 1853 by Samuel Peters. The Lodge was the Peter's family home for three generations, until grand daughter Leila's death in 1974.

In 1992 a coalition of heritage and environmental groups, under the sponsorship of Heritage London Foundation, proposed, and entered into an agreement with the City, to operate Grosvenor Lodge as a public center.
