cast iron german fireback showing the judgement of solomon. dated 1684, it was found in the house.

heraldic plaque from the front of tottenham grammar school, dated 1659, now amongst the few items left on view in the museum, which now only fills a few ground floor rooms, such a waste of an excellent house.

c18 delft tiles in what remains of the museum here, taken from a fireplace in a local house

marble fireplace in a downstairs room, prob. c19. rather than many seperate tiles there are unusually three long tile inserts.

excellent late c17 fireplace, brought from northern europe at a later date.the cast iron and tiles look arts and crafts work of the earliest c20. this is on the first floor, now a white desert of temporary exhibition spaces, all fire doors and health and safety notices. the main stair has had a stairlift fitted, though there is nothing to see up here apart from the odd fireplace that hasn;t been ripped out yet. give them time. . . what a waste of a house.

silenus from an excellent late c17 fireplace, brought from northern europe at a later date, and fitted into an upstairs room.

excellent late c17 fireplace, brought from northern europe at a later date.

central clock tower over the porch, added 1684, with cannon-ball-like clock weight hanging over the edge. once a local museum, this house has suffered from political correctness, health and safety, and sad attempts to make the place "relevant". upstairs is now empty. what a sad waste; the council should give this house to someone who will use it.

excellent regency cast iron fireplace, maybe early c19, upstairs . the fireplaces are the only things left to see up here. everything not fitted has gone: the council seems to prefer cod-modernist empty white spaces.
