This exhibition looks into the lives of the others who called Keats House ‘home’ between 1816 and 1920.

The most famous occupant of Keats House was, of course, John Keats. The house remains significant to so many people because of his time spent here: the site of his most productive writing, his tragic love story, and the illness that led to his untimely death. Yet Keats lived here for less than 21 months, in a house that served as a residence for over 100 years.

What of the other inhabitants of Keats House? Who lived here when it was Wentworth Place, Laurel Cottage and Lawn Bank? What joy, scandals and tragedies occurred here, and what can they tell us about life in the 19th and 20th centuries? This new exhibition provides a glimpse into the lives of some of the others who called this house ‘home’ between 1816 and 1920.

Entrance to the exhibition is included with admission to the house.
