Stansted Hall, built in 1871, was given to the Spiritualists' National Union in by J. Arthur Findlay, MBE, JP, a  former honorary president of the SNU, and in accordance with his wishes is administered by the Union as a college for the advancement of psychic science. Findlay bought the estate in 1923 upon his retirement from business and first mooted the idea of a spiritualist college at Stansted to the union in 1945. After personal contacts with three successive SNU presidents, a will was drawn up, and in 1954 the National Council accepted the proposed bequest of Stansted Hall with an endowment. This was followed by a later gift in the form of stock to be used for furnishing and  decorating, and in 1964, a year after the death of his wife, Findlay transferred the hall, grounds and endowment to the union. Findlay died in July 1964.
