Dennis Severs’ House

Step back in time as you enter what looks from the outside to be an ordinary, if still attractive, period property. Once across the threshold, however, you’ll be transported to a series of time capsules covering the early Georgian period through to the Great War. There are hidden corridors, flickering candles, and all manner of fascinating objects to be found across its four floors, all carefully blended together to tell the story of an imaginary family of Huguenot weavers.
