We're looking forward to The Red House opening to visitors from May 20 and as we begin to start getting the rooms ready for re-opening, we've enjoyed exploring the carefully-preserved items that belonged to Britten & Pears when they lived in their much-loved home together...

🖼️ The second image shows a painting by Mary Potter that resides by the fireplace.

📸 The third image gives a closer look at the photo of Britten and Rostropovich, taken by Nigel Luckhurst, that lives below the painting.

This photo is from about 1919. Now, a hundred years later, the town has grown over the fields and just touches the edge of the garden...⠀
