URPoint Details
The Green Park Sports Hall occupies the site of Sir Anthony de Rothschild's mansion. The stables were built for the celebrated hunters of his son in law, Lord Battersea, and have now been made into a fine conference hall. The girls and infants school, which Sir Anthony founded to please his small daughters, has now been demolished, but in similar Gothic style the Church Boys School, surmounted by the Jubilee Clock, dominates the village centre. The Anthony Hall was given to the village by Sir Anthony's widow and the fountain is the village's memorial to her.
