In 1891, G F and Mary Watts moved to Limnerslease. Designed by Sir Ernest George and built at the start of the Arts & Crafts movement, the house still features original gesso ceiling panels and fireplaces by Mary Watts. Celebrating Limnerslease in 2021, this short course introduces the British Arts & Crafts movement through key buildings, designers, collectors and inhabitants.
