Rare and outstanding architecture |
Ham Street Ham London, London TW10 7RS +44 20 8940 1950 http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/w-vh/w-visits/w-findaplace/w-hamhouse.htm |
The 17th century home of the Duke and Duchess of Lauderdale, Ham House has only undergone minor alterations in the last 300-odd years and is a rare and outstanding example of the architecture and taste of that period. Situated in a park next to the river Thames, the House holds one of the world's best collections of 17th century furniture, a display described by one antiques expert as 'furnished like a great Prince's'. Outside, the gardens comprise, parterres, flower gardens, orangeries, groves, avenues, courts, fountains and aviaries - all at the bank one of the most historic rivers in the world.
