The Fan museum is in Greenwich (near naval museum) also next to the house Daniel Day Lewis grew up in, his father was poet laureate for United Kingdom at the time. There is a plaque marking it. It is an easy walk from the tube station.
It is a lovely small museum with a fine orangery in the back. http://www.fan-museum.org/information.asp 12 Crooms Hill, Greenwich, London SE10 8ER Telephone: 0208-305 1441 0208-293 1889 > > ------------------------------ > > Message: 11 > Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2005 04:45:24 -0400 > From: "Penny Ladnier" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [h-cost] Suggestions for London > To: "Historical Costume" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; > reply-type=response >\ > Susan, my asst. told me that there is a hand-fan museum in London.
