This gallery is located in the house that William Morris and his family lived in between 1848 and 1856. It was first opened as a gallery in the 1950s.

It tells the story of Morris’ life and works, all in the appropriate setting of a house decorated with wallpaper and furnishings designed by Morris himself. As a result the gallery is wonderfully atmospheric and quite popular.

On the top floor the gallery is also home to exhibitions on some of Morris’s close associates for example the artists Burne-Jones and Philip Webb and the furniture designer Ernest Gimson.

The William Morris Gallery is open Tuesdays-Saturdays from 10am-5pm. Admission is free.
