Horniman Museum - Horniman Map of the World (sitios de interés)
Descripción del sitio
Frederick Horniman used a large part of his tea trade fortune to establish the Horniman Museum and Gardens, in Forest Hill.
An avid collector since childhood, he travelled extensively, and founded and built the museum to house his various collections, which he donated in 1907. Today the museum houses some 350,000 items, of which the core 10% are from Frederick's original donation.
