Britain's What's On Event Guide
Medieval Merchant's House, Abingdon
Heritage Open Day: Tour the oldest house in Abingdon, with its unique architectural features, including a wall with stunning paintings. 26 & 26 a East St. Helen Street is Abingdon’s oldest house and Oxford Preservation Trust’s too.... The property was left to Oxford Preservation Trust by Miss Baker in the 1970s. The building dates from c.1430 and contains vibrant 16th-century wall paintings which cover the walls on the first floor, and a gallery lit by a timber window with its original intricate gothic tracery. We know that the two houses were once a single house and where the covered coach entrance has been knocked through, is where there was once an open fire – this house dates back to before the invention of the fireplace.
