Stratford - Anne Hathaway's Cottage

 
Anne Hathaway's Cottage is situated in Shottery, 1mi/1.6km west of Stratford town center. This country house, a brick building with half-timbering, a thatched roof and a delightful garden, remains in almost the exact state as it was when Shakespeare won the hand of his wife, Anne, here. Until 1899 it was inhabited by descendants of the Hathaway family.
