A 17th-century house on the south bank at Richmond. Deepen either this or the park — not both plus Kew. Next is Richmond Riverside — do not also stack Hampton Court the same day.
Analysis
Ham House is not a facade you glance at. About 12:00–16:00 in season; often closed Monday. The quiet hour is the first after opening. A service may close the nave. Leave via Richmond.
Best time
Afternoon
How to go
Walk the bridge from Richmond, or a short bus
Transit
Tap at Richmond. If a service closes Ham House, do not leave the last train until after the service ends.
Season window
Christmas and Easter change the hours at Ham House. In winter stay indoors. In summer the steps bake at noon — move to shade or a side aisle.
Tips
- · Tickets: Mid: adult tickets on the official site — do not freeze a guide number. Plan about 60 minutes.
- · National Trust; winter hours are short
- · Keep voices down inside Ham House. There are stone steps; wet soles slip. Bags come off the shoulder.
