Eldon HouseEldon House
Walk a half-block north on Ridout Street and visit London's oldest surviving residence, Eldon House. Built in 1834 for John and Amelia Harris, Eldon House remained in the Harris family for four successive generations. Virtually unchanged since the last century, this historic home contains family heirlooms, furnishings and priceless treasures of the Harris family as well as a re-created 19th century garden. Once a centre of social life in early 19th century London, Eldon House remains a charming reflection of the city's past.

Located at 481 Ridout Street North, Eldon House is operated by LRAHM and is open the same hours. Free admission on Tuesdays and Sundays: other days a nominal fee is charged. Group tours can be booked by calling 672-4580, ext 265. Each June an old-fashioned garden party is held on the grounds; during the summer months, traditional teas are served in the afternoon.
