Hall's Croft
This impressive house is where Shakespeare's eldest daughter (Susanna), lived with her medical genius of a husband. It is near to Holy Trinity Church, where Shakespeare is buried. On display are outstanding sixteenth and seventeenth-century furniture and paintings, and an exhibition about Dr Hall and the medicine of his time. It has an enchanting garden. Not to be missed. Herbs and perennials are for sale here and refreshments can be enjoyed on secluded seats and in the intimate tea room.
The lower level of the house is guided, but visitors are welcome to enjoy the entire house.
