About this Event
The grand, 18th Century Uppark Baby House is among the most historically important in the country and one of only a handful that have survived almost 300 years in incredibly good condition.
The Baby House was given to a Huguenot heiress, Sarah Lethieullier, by her father in 1732. In 1746 Sarah Married Matthew Fetherstonhaugh and the Baby House was moved to their London home in Whitehall (now the Scotland Office). Then, after Matthew's death, it was then taken to Uppark in the 1770s, where it has remained until now. The baby house has a temporary new home at the Huguenot Museum, Rochester, while the room where it is usually displayed at Uppark House is being restored.
To celebrate this incredible curiousity , we have organised an exciting day of talks by a wide variety of speakers, of great interest to all dolls house enthusiasts.
