The Home Where Time Stood Still | Mr Straw's House

Why is a semi-detached house in Nottinghamshire frozen in time?
Join us on a visit to 7 Blythe Grove in Worksop, or Mr Straw’s House as it’s now known, to tour the rooms that have barely changed since the 1930’s.
Discover more about the family who lived there, and why they chose to live in a bygone era, long after the world around them had changed.
