Whitehall House
This is the back view because the front had lots of different signs up & I felt it spoilt the look of it; there is a Cafe inside so thats Advertised, but a fair amount of the place is a Museum & well worth a look around.
They had an Inglenook Fireplace & in a small pit at the front of it were Skeleton Animal Skulls. EEEwww!!
Built around 1500, Whitehall is a Grade II* listed Tudor house in the heart of Cheam Village. It is owned and managed by the London Borough of Sutton who opened it as a local museum in 1978 following a campaign by the community. The construction of Whitehall as well as the story of its use and occupants through time offer unique insights into the past.
While exploring this lovely Village I also visited St. Dunstans Church where I was made very welcome.
The present church was built in 1864 ,but the old church dated back to Saxon times, the chancel of which is still standing in the church yard which I missed as described there is Lumley Chapel.
Some great shops to look around, it's nice to some huge Greengrocers around this area, I popped into a smaller one where the service was very friendly. :)
