2nd September 2024
This week on the Post, it's The Museum of the Home, housed in the beautiful former Geffrye Almshouses (1714, Grade I listed) in Hoxton, seen here in a 1985 print by John Piper. It has recently had a significant makeover; in addition to its well-known sequence of domestic rooms through time, there are new galleries in the basement, lovely gardens, and a cafe in a former Victorian pub. Very much worth a visit, and easy to reach on the London Overground.
