Balls Park, Hertford - former campus of the University of Hertfordshire Business School
Balls Park, Hertford - Jacobean Mansion dating back to 1630.
Has unfortunately fallen into a sorry state or disrepair since 2003 when the UH Business School relocated to the new UH Super campus in Hatfield.
The mansion has featured in several movies and drama productions since, namely the BBC drama productions of 'Foyles War' and the BBC Dickens adaptation of 'Bleak House' starring X-Files' Gillian Anderson amogst others, as well as recently providing the location for the 1st scene in the 1st episode of the second series of Ricky Gervais' hit follow up to 'The Office' - 'Extras'
Legend had it while we were still at the campus that the ghost mysterious 'Grey Lady' can be seen wandering the mansion grounds underneath this balcony at night - supposedly the point where she had hanged herself hundreds of years earlier - I never saw her - thankfully!
