More about this scene
The old Tudor timber-framed cottage formerly stood slightly further to the south, before being purchased by Epsom Rural Council in 1922 when it was dismantled and transferred to this present site. It had earlier been used as offices by the Cheam Brewery. During the reconstruction process, it was discovered that the timbers had previously been incorporated into an earlier building, leading to speculation that it had once stood in the village of Cuddington before that settlement was demolished by Henry VIII to make way for his Nonsuch Palace.
