Eleven London living rooms, 1630 to 2049, each dressed as if somebody just left it.
HistoryPermanentFree
The Museum of the Home is a row of almshouses built in 1714 for retired ironmongers, and behind the front rooms it keeps a sequence of London interiors set four hundred years apart. A hall in 1630 where the whole household including the servants sits down together; a parlour in 1695 shown off to guests; another in 1745 being cleaned before tea; then the Victorians, the mid-century geometrics, a flat in the 1970s, a shared house now, and a speculative room in 2049. The early rooms are prosperous and middle class because those are the interiors that survive; the later ones deliberately widen out to the other ways Londoners have actually lived. Free, and the rooms are redressed through the year, most dramatically for the winter programme.
