Harvard House, Tudor house on High Street, Stratford-upon-Avon, England
The Grade I listed Harvard House features detailed timber framing, elaborate carvings, and multiple jetties across its three-story structure.
Thomas Rogers constructed this residence in 1596 after fires destroyed the town center, incorporating his initials and those of his wife Alice on the facade.
The building maintains connections with Harvard University through Catherine Rogers, mother of John Harvard, who established the renowned American institution.
The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust manages the property at 26 High Street, offering visitors access to examine Tudor architectural elements.
The house served various commercial purposes through centuries, from a maltster's residence to a bookshop, plumber's workshop, and estate agent office.
