Old Kitchen, Gilbert White's House & Garden, Selbourne, Alton, Hampshire, England UK


Gilbert White's House & Garden, Selbourne, Alton, Hampshire, England UK The Oates Memorial Museum and the Gilbert White Museum are both incorporated in the former home of Gilbert White, an appealing and spreading house known as 'The Wakes'. Situated at one end of the High Street in the tiny village of Selborne, the original house dates from the 16th century, but was extensively altered and enlarged some 200 years later when Gilbert White inherited the property he had grown up in. The house, purchased by Professor Bell in 1844, was further extended when he built a library, currently used for part of an exhibition devoted to White's work.
