Abstract:		 MOLA undertook a Level 3 record of Claremont House, St Helen's School, Hillingdon. Claremont house was built as a late-Victorian Villa style family residence in 1891 in Northwood, on land formerly part of the Eastbury Estate. The area had been remote and rural until the coming of the Metropolitan Railway and the opening of Northwood Station in 1887. The Eastbury Estate was broken up and plots of land auctioned off. Claremont House was built on one of these providing a home for a family and servants, with rail access to the City of London. The house had been extended to the north in two episodes. The first to provide better facilities for the serving staff. The second extension may have been built in the mid 1930s, to provide separate staff accommodation for teaching staff of St Helen's School. The house remained in private ownership and domestic use until it was bought by St Helen's School in 1934 and used to accommodate boarders and staff. After the school was evacuated during the Second World War the building was briefly occupied by a London insurance firm, before the school returned after the War. The building remained in school use until 2017 and was recorded prior to demolition and the construction of a new building on the site.
