The Marble Hall is an office block of the former Rolls-Royce Limited factory in Osmaston, Derby, in England. The factory was developed from 1907 to manufacture the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost. The Marble Hall was built in 1912 and was the site of important decisions made during Rolls-Royce's history as a car and aircraft engine manufacturer. The Marble Hall was significantly altered in 1938 adding a classical style entrance way clad in Portland stone and a porte-cochère from which customers could collect their finished cars. The factory closed in 2008, the Marble Hall came into the ownership of Derby City Council and from 2014 was refurbished to provide offices for small and medium-sized enterprises.
