For the first time since it opened for tours forty years ago, Dennis Severs 18th Century house in Spitalfields, east London, has been closed to the public but, behind the scenes, a small army has been working to renew the house for reopening to visitors this summer.
From 1979 to 1999 it was lived in by Dennis Severs, who gradually recreated the rooms as a time capsule. The house reflects the life of an imaginary Huguenot family, who had lived there since it was built in 1724.
The Gentle Author of Spitalfields Life blog has reimagined the immersive tours that Dennis Severs gave when he first opened the house for guests.
