The ancient Manor of Harefield was held by the [[Newdigate Baronets|Newdigate family]] from about 1440. The old Manor house, [[Harefield Place]], adjacent to St Mary the Virgin church, was replaced in 1786, when a new mansion house was built at Harefield Lodge. The old 'Harefield Place' fell into disrepair and was demolished in 1813, whereupon the new Manor house became known as Harefield Place. It was sold by [[Charles Newdigate Newdegate]] in 1877. In 1938 it was acquired by the local authority to serve as a hospital. In 1959 the land was redeveloped and is now the Harefield Place Golf Club.

Harefield House, a Grade II [[listed building]], High Street, Harefield, was built by Sir [[Roger Newdigate]] in about 1750. From about 1765 to 1809 it was occupied by J. M. Bruhl. During [[World War I]] it served as No. 1 Australian Auxiliary Hospital. In 1937 it was acquired by the [[Ministry of Defence (United Kingdom)|Ministry of Defence]] and was occupied by the Aeronautical Inspection Directorate. 

After 1982 the building was restored and converted to office use. In 2015 the building was used as the filming location for the interior of the island mansion in the [[And Then There Were None (miniseries)|TV adaptation]] of [[Agatha Christie]]'s mystery novel ''[[And Then There Were None]]''.<ref name="The Location Guide 22 December 2015">{{cite web| last= Deehan| first= Tom| url= http://www.thelocationguide.com/blog/2015/12/bbc%E2%80%99s-and-then-there-were-none-filmed-in-cornwall-and-hillingdon/| title= BBC's And Then There Were None filmed in Cornwall and Hillingdon| work= The Location Guide| date= 22 December 2015| access-date= 27 December 2015| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20170113202216/http://www.thelocationguide.com/blog/2015/12/bbc%E2%80%99s-and-then-there-were-none-filmed-in-cornwall-and-hillingdon/| archive-date= 13 January 2017| url-status= dead}}</ref>
