Harston House

Harston House is a historic private house in Harston. It was formerly known as Harston Hall.

Although the main building is seventeenth century parts of its structure date back to at least 1480 Roman tiles have been found in the grounds and in the foundations of Harston House, supporting a tradition that a property has stood on this land ever since Roman times. The house is noteworthy for its distinctive features of English architecture, including its original Tudor fireplace, original fine wooden panelling from the seventeenth century and its rare pilasters made of clunch.

This is not to be confused with Harston House student accommodation at Addenbrooke's hospital.
