Dennis Severs' House offers a glimpse into 18th-century & 19th-century life in England through the eyes of a family of Huguenot weaver. Dennis Severs’ House is in Spitalfields, just a short walk from Liverpool Street Station and Shoreditch High Street Station. This ancient neighbourhood has been defined by successive waves of immigration over the past 400 years. Possessing a significant number of historic buildings including Christ Church, Nicholas Hawksmoor’s masterpiece of English baroque, Spitalfields retains its distinctive character and comes alive with markets at weekends. No visit to Dennis Severs’ House is complete without a walk to explore the independent shops, pubs and restaurants. Here are some of our favourite local restaurants and pubs.
