Frederick John Horniman, was a tea trader in the 19th century and began collecting objects, specimens and artefacts 'illustrating natural history and the arts and handicrafts of various peoples of the world' from around 1860. He wanted to 'bring the world to Forest Hill' and educate and enrich the lives of the local community who didn't have the chance or money to go travelling and see these amazing things. He travelled to Egypt, Sri Lanka, Burma, China, Japan, Canada and the United States collecting objects. Mr Horniman’s interest as a collector was well known and many travellers approached him with specimens and curiosities. By the end of the century, he had accumulated so much stuff that he gave up the whole house to the collections'. His wife said 'either the collection goes or we do' so the family moved to Surrey Mount the grounds of which adjoined those of the former residence. www.joolzguides.com SUPPORT MY CHANNEL ON PATREON ➜ https://www.patreon.com/joolzguides -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "Tower of London to Wapping - London's Best Riverside Walk" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZs1kkqWwU8 -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- |
