Visit Whitehall Historic House for New Summer Exhibitions

Exhibitions at Whitehall Historic House

From the permanent displays about the history of Whitehall, Cheam, Nonsuch Palace and the surrounding area, and of course the 500 year old building itself inside, to the distinct white weatherboarding, projecting upper storey, and sloping porch outside, Whitehall Historic House stands out as something special.

Join us as we commemorate the Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee with a curated exhibition:

Jubilee: Celebrating 70 Years

12 May - 30 July 2022

Thursday - Saturday 10am - 5pm

As part of the Borough's Jubilee celebrations to mark 70 years of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, this exhibition takes a wide-angle look at how Sutton has participated in marking key moments in the succession of monarchs from 1838 to the present day.

As well as showcasing images and objects from our collections, the exhibition also invites visitors to reflect on what 70 years of Queen Elizabeth II’s reign may mean to them, both culturally and personally.

About Whitehall Historic House

With a timber structure originally built around 1500, Whitehall Historic House is a Grade II* listed building set in the village of Cheam.

Following the recently completed National Lottery Heritage Fund refurbishment, and building on its 500 year history, we are delighted to once again invite visitors back to Whitehall to rediscover this incredible site for FREE. This Grade II* listed property is an impressive feature at the heart of the picturesque village of Cheam. From the permanent displays about the history of Whitehall, Cheam and the surrounding area, and of course the 500 year old building itself inside, to the distinct white weatherboarding, projecting upper storey, and sloping porch outside, Whitehall Historic House stands out as something special.
