It must be a dog's life, having to share your lunch with an antiques dealer.

This was all set to be a mini-supermarket. It was fitted out but had little stock and was never open for business.

Yesterday I made a visit to Fulham Palace (SW6) and what a hidden gem it is. I arrived just in time to join a taster tour with Chantel one of 250 volunteers at the Palace, it left me wanting to go back for the full tour.

With archaeological evidence of Neolithic, Iron Age and Roman settlers and the foundations of a medieval palace under the East Lawn, the present site of Fulham Palace is steeped in history.

From around 700, when the site was acquired by Bishop Waldhere, it served as a Bishop’s residence for over 12 centuries. At least since Tudor times, Fulham Palace was the Bishop of London’s country home, providing the Bishop and his family with a healthy rural retreat in summer months.

The Manor of Fulham was bought by Waldhere, the Bishop of London, from Tyrhtilus, the Bishop of Hereford, about 700AD. The Manor covered the whole of what is now Hammersmith and Fulham, Ealing, Acton and Finchley. The Bishops owned other manors in Middlesex, Essex and Hertfordshire.

Nearest tube is Putney Bridge on the District Line and then a very nice 10 min walk along the river though Bishop's Meadow (park).
