About us
London Shh... is a collection of six of the city's hidden-gems; small historic houses which tell the stories of fascinating and famous former residents.
Tucked away down intriguing streets and alleys, off the beaten tourist track you will find some of the city's best kept secrets. London Shh... formed in 2008 with a view to encourage more people to discover and enjoy these beautiful houses. To step through one of our front doors is to be transported back in time and experience first-hand the places which famous names from Freud to Franklin chose to call home. So come and visit us and get closer to the people whose innovations and actions changed the world we live in. All the houses are independent registered charities and generate their own income through exciting programmes of exhibitions, events and more.
