The Geffrye Museum


Here's few more shots of the museum...

the mural in the conservatory is quite beautiful.

There was also an exhibit on the 'Front Room' and it's importance to Afro-Carribbean immigrants in the 60's and 70's. Only company was ever allowed in there, and you would be judged by how decorated and how clean your front room was. It was also a place for them to socialise as many places, like pubs etc. were closed to black people.
