The Elizabethan House Museum is a charming merchants’ house located on the quayside in Great Yarmouth. It was built around 1596. The house has undergone many changes over the years, and many of its wealthy inhabitants made these changes. Wood-panelled rooms, richly decorated ceilings, and the imposing stairway all help to tell the story of the Elizabethan House.
The house is famous for its connections with Oliver Cromwell, who is said to have frequently visited his friend, John Carter, a prominent Yarmouth merchant who purchased the house from Benjamin Cowper in 1635.
The building became a regular meeting place for parliamentarians during the Civil War, and it is said this is where the fate of Charles I was decided in 1648. From 1667, some 14 different families lived in the house. In 1870, the Aldred family bought it, and it remained in their possession until the eldest daughter, Mary Aldred, bequeathed it to the National Trust.
Paranormal activity is a regular occurrence at the Elizabethan house. Many hear footsteps, disembodied voices, and mysterious dark shadows moving around the building. Many of the visitors here have also reported being touched by unseen hands. Will you join us as we try to uncover who or what haunts this building and uncover more of its rich history?
