Stratford - Nash's House (New Place Town Museum)

A few steps from the Stratford Town Hall, in Chapel Street, Nash's House is now home to the New Place Town Museum, displaying Roman and Saxon finds, as well as mementos of Shakespeare and Garrick. Thomas Nash, to whom the house belonged, was married to Shakespeare's granddaughter Elizabeth Hall. Next to his house stood New Place, one of the most attractive houses in the town, which Shakespeare bought on May 4, 1597 for the sum of £60. After his return from London in 1611 Shakespeare lived here until his death.
