Opened by Prime Minister Clement Attlee in 1950, this is the only public museum devoted to England's best known and most versatile designer. The Gallery is located at Walthamstow in Morris's family home from 1848-1856, the former Water House, a substantial Georgian dwelling of about 1750, set in its own extensive grounds (now Lloyd Park). The Gallery's internationally important collections illustrate William Morris's life, work and influence. Permanent displays include printed, woven and embroidered fabrics, rugs, carpets, wallpapers, furniture, stained glass and painted tiles designed by Morris and others. Open Tues-Sat and 1st Sunday each month; admission is free. Group and guided tours available. Closed Monday and public holidays.
