The Dutch Cottage Museum

This cottage is located on Canvey Island, quite close to our Essex workshop. During the 18th century, many Dutch workers were employed in draining and embanking the low lying land in this area, and built these octagonal homes for themselves.  Today only four survive on the island, this one built in 1618, is the best known and opens during the summer months as a museum.

The Dutch Cottage measures 11.5cm (4 & 1/2″) tall to the top of the chimney x 7.5cm  (2 & 7/8″) wide.
