Linley Sambourne House

Located at 18 Stafford Terrace, this house was occupied by Edward Linley Sambourne who was a leading Punch cartoonist from 1874 – 1911. Despite having been lived in by members of his family until about 1978, its interior has largely survived unchanged and is today regarded as the best example of late Victorian/early Edwardian décor. Many of Sambourne’s wall decorations such as pictures and paintings as well as fixtures and furniture have been preserved. The house is now owned by the Royal Borough and operated by the Victorian Society. The house is open from 1st March to 31st October.
