Broadfield House, Crawley

Cultural and Institutional Buildings

Broadfield House is a Grade II listed villa built in 1830 on the Tilgate Estate in what is now the Broadfield neighbourhood of Crawley, West Sussex, England, distinguished by bow-fronted facades, a columned verandah, a Welsh slate roof and Greek Revival interior decoration. The house was later extended and served as a country club before becoming the headquarters of the Crawley Development Corporation after the Second World War, when major planning decisions for the new town of Crawley were made there. It was refurbished in 2011 for use by Discovery New School, a Montessori free school that closed in 2014.
