Carlyle's House

This Queen Anne terrace house was the home of the Victorian writer and historian, Thomas Carlyle, known as the Sage of Chelsea.

The house contains the original furnishings and personal items of Carlyle and his wife Jane.

The atmospheric rooms, soundproofed study and simple kitchen are just as they were at the time of his death in 1881.
