Old House Houses
The Old House is an excellent example of a timber-framed building and is situated in the heart of Hereford, surrounded by the commercial centre of the city. It is a startling sight, standing as it does in the middle of a modern shopping precinct.
Built in 1621, the house has been used for many purposes over the years, but is now a fascinating museum giving an insight into daily life in Jacobean times. It is furnished in period style and there are interesting pieces in every room. Of particular interest are the wall paintings, beds and baby walkers.
There are hands-on activities for children including replica clothing and puzzles.
