Is this the smallest house in London , 10 Hyde Park Place,The house contained just two rooms, 32 feet by 4 feet, connected by a ladder. The upper room has a partition, so an estate agent might describe it as a two-bedroom.Following the second world war, the house was incorporated into the neighbouring Tyburn Convent, where it remains today. It kept its original appearance until recent times, when the facade was rebuilt in red brick. one day I might find out the true size of this house , but for now this is all I can find out about this house , If anyone out there has more info about the inside please do let me know :
The Mysterious History of London’s Smallest House. Number 10 Hyde Park Place was London's smallest house it measured only 3 feet 6 inches wide. The diminutive tube-like dwelling dates from 1805 and is nestled between two mansion blocks. Historically it’s thought the house was built to deter grave robbers who had used the passage as a thoroughfare to reach nearby St George’s Graveyard. A more plausible explanation was that it was used as a small annexe for servants quarters as part of a neighbouring mansion. Urban legend also suggests it may have been a watchman’s house, while another myth is that a mythical dwarf used to live there. Many theories abound about the former residents of this mysterious property. A man named Lewis Grant Wallace was reportedly its first and only tenant. The earliest mention of the tiny house is from a newspaper item of 1904, which notes that bus drivers would point it out as London’s smallest house. In 1941 the building was damaged by bombing during the Blitz, and after the second world war the house was incorporated into the neighbouring Tyburn Convent, part of which it remains today. It kept its original appearance until recently when the façade received a modern red brick makeover.
Extremely small house, but fun to see
Was not very big.
Indeed... It is small....
Not much, but nice to seeVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
We walked to the place, and the last one was an ordinary house, nor is it a landmark that you do not go to unless you are on the way to Oxford or Selfridges.Visited onWeekdayWait time10–30 minReservation recommendedNo
