Note(s)This former Georgian townhouse was converted to tenements in 1877 to house multiple working-class families. It has been rescued from dereliction as part of the Henrietta Street Conservation Plan and converted into a museum. The reinstatement of the grand stairs works as essential infrastructure while acknowledging the house's mid 18th century origins.
