It was built in the early 17th century, and has 18th century alterations, and probably the largest private garden in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.[2]

In 1918, The Vineyard was purchased by the press baron Max Aitken, Lord Beaverbrook, and he lived there from 1921 to 1947.[2][3] Winston Churchill was a frequent visitor. The house remained in the ownership of the Beaverbrook family until the 1990s.[2]
