Dennis Severs House

Over on the Theatre Breaks Magazine blog there's a curious suggestion to visit a smaller London Attraction called Dennis Severs House

Dennis Severs' House in fact features ten rooms which depict the family life of some Huguenot weavers, who inhabited the house at 18 Folgate Street in the early 18th Century.

Dennis Severs House is actually a brilliant place to visit. Having been there several times I’d especially recommend going soon before Christmas because they do it up just like old Christmases past, and the smells are simply heavenly. Each floor of the house depicts a different era. You have to be silent though. A great place to just sit & relax. Dennis Severs lived here & created it & invited special guests to experience it in the way he wanted it to be experienced. One of the truly greatest experiences that London has to offer, a unique experience. Dennis Severs House - 18 Folgate Street

Family life in the 18th and 19th Century. Not a usual museum but in many respects a very modern art form where sounds smells and visuals will tickle your senses.
