Smallhythe Place

Source

Nestled in the picturesque Kent countryside, Smallhythe Place is the former home of renowned actress Ellen Terry. Now it houses hundreds of her theatrical garments, memorabilia and personal belongings. There is also a seventeenth century thatched barn that was transformed into a theatre in 1929 by Ellen Terry’s daughter, Edith Craig, as a way to keep her mother’s legacy alive. We run a lively programme of events and shows throughout the Spring and Summer months, including open-air performances. The Theatre Tea-room and a charming traditional English Country Garden with views of the rolling hills beyond, complete the experience.
