Heritage Open Day: Discover the fascinating story of Mullins House, a Grade II listed building on West Street, Dorking, dating back to around 1590. The building is best known as the former home of William Mullins, one of the Pilgrim Fathers who sailed aboard the Mayflower to America in 1620. Between 1612 and 1620, William Mullins lived and worked here as a shoemaker and merchant before leaving Dorking in search of religious freedom and new opportunities in the New World.
Although William Mullins sadly died during the first winter in Plymouth Colony, his daughter Priscilla survived and later married fellow Mayflower passenger John Alden. Their descendants remain closely connected to this story today...
