Georgian front door of almshouse at Geffrye Museum

The Geffrye Museum displays a series of interior room designs showing the evolution of middle class design taste from the 17th through to the 21st century. It "is set in almshouses built in 1714 [the first year of the Georgian era] by the Ironmongers' Company, with a bequest from Sir Robert Geffrye, twice master of the Company and former Lord Mayor of London." (Wikipedia)

 

The ground floor of each east-facing house is decorated to represent the interior design style of a different period. They are Grade I listed buildings.
