🤓 Fun Facts
The museum opened in 1929—making it one of London’s earliest purpose-made local history museums.
The house’s bell board once connected to dozens of rooms; a single dinner could require more than 20 staff behind the scenes.
Much of today’s public parkland was the private estate of the Rothschild family—whose parties drew politicians, artists and royalty.
