Live History Class for Kids: Discover the Georgian Home with John Wesley’s House

John Wesley's House exterior and interior room, a furnished Georgian room

For this special half term edition of our Live History Class series, we’re delighted to welcome Gemma Smith to transport us back to Georgian times with a virtual tour of John Wesley’s House!

John Wesley was a contemporary of Ben Franklin, he lived on City Road in London in a house very much like 36 Craven Street! Join Gemma, the Learning & Community Engagement Officer from John Wesley’s House, as we go on a virtual tour of the House to see how Georgian Londoners like Ben and John lived. You’ll then use the tour as inspiration to create your own mini Georgian townhouse.
