Regency Town House

The Regency Town House is a museum building occupying a terraced property on Brunswick Square, furnished and decorated to show how it looked in the 1800s. It extends across multiple levels with living areas on the ground floor, bedrooms above, and servant quarters in the basement, all connected by a central staircase.

The building was constructed in the 1820s as part of a new urban development, designed by a prominent architect of the time. It remains a fine example of how townhouses were built and arranged during that era.

The house shows how people lived during the Georgian period, with restored furnishings and details that reveal daily routines. Different social classes shared the same building, and you can see how their lives intersected through the rooms.

The house is open to visitors during warmer months, and booking ahead is recommended to secure your visit. A full tour typically takes one to two hours depending on how much time you spend in each room.

The basement still contains original marks and features that show where coal was stored and how the space functioned in daily use. These details offer a rare glimpse into the practical systems that kept the house running.
