Statement of Significance
Tarring, constructed in 1872 and now known as henty House at Ruyton Gerl's School, is important as an early and successful example of polychromatic brickwork.
The building has important associations with the Henty family and Henry Henty in particular. Henry was a leading Victorian merchant. The residence was originally named Tarring after the village in Sussex from where the Henty family originated.
Henty's House is important for its association with Ruyton, a very important private girl's school. Henty House was purchased and used by the School from 1921 after Mrs. Henty's death.
