This building was a Tudor merchant's house, built in the 1500s. The interior is shown as it would have been in those days, with its beams exposed and painted designs on some of the walls.

It includes an exhibit on the pin factory that operated in this building from 1745-1853. It really never crossed our minds how pins were made, and we found it interesting.
