Gainsborough's House, House museum in Sudbury, England.

The Georgian architecture building at 46 Gainsborough Street contains multiple exhibition spaces displaying paintings, drawings, and personal items of Thomas Gainsborough.

The structure, dating from 1520, became the birthplace of painter Thomas Gainsborough in 1727 and remained a family residence until its sale at auction in 1792.

The museum maintains a collection of oil paintings and works on paper, while offering art classes, etching courses, and life drawing sessions throughout the year.

The museum provides wheelchair access, lifts to all floors, adapted toilets, and a café with indoor and outdoor seating arrangements for visitors.

The property includes a crinkle-crankle walled garden and a landscape studio with panoramic views that reflect the natural settings that inspired Gainsborough's paintings.
