Oliver Cromwell House Houses
Oliver Cromwell and his family lived in this fascinating house from 1636 for about ten years, after Oliver inherited the lease from his uncle, Sir Thomas Steward. The house was known as 'The Rectory and Parsonage of the Holy Trinity and St. Mary's called the Sextry in Ely'.
The House has seen many changes of use over the years, having been an inn called 'The Cromwell Arms', as well as a home to the local medical officer, then also serving as the vicarage for St. Mary's church.
In 1989 Oliver Cromwell's House was purchased and restored by East Cambridgeshire District Council. This enabled our valuable historic house to recreate the life and times of Oliver Cromwell, while also providing a unique setting for Ely Tourist Information Centre. .
