Another in the series of 5 properties forming the Shakespeare experience in Stratford. Nash's House and New Place is situated on Chapel Street in the centre of Stratford. It is within walking distance of the other two Shakespeare properties (Croft's Hall and the Birthplace).

It was owned by Thomas Nash, the first husband of Shakespeare's granddaughter. Next to the existing property is the site of New PLace, the property purchased by Shakespeare in 1597 and where he later died. This property has sadly been demolished so only the site and some foundations remain.

It is a brick and timber house furnished with a vast amount of impressive 16th and 17th century fine art.

It does not take long to go round the house, we were there about 30 minutes but it is worth taking the time to look at it. The staff and very knowledgable and willing to show you around and tell you more about the life and times of Shakespeare.

There ae some lovely gardens at the property with an ancient Mulberry Tree, it is saidto have been from a cutting taken by Shakespeare himself. There are lots of plants and sculptures that area really nice to wander round, especially on a warm autumnal day.

Although a small property it does add to the whole Shakespeare experience and I would recommend visiting it to make the most of the whole Shakespeare attraction.
