D25655.  Water House.
           D25655.  The Water House in Walthamstow, London, E17 dates from 1762 and is Grade II* listed.  

It’s claim to fame is that it was the childhood home of William Morris who was one of the leading members of the Arts and Crafts movement.  It now houses the William Morris Gallery which is a museum devoted to his life and work.  

This is the rear of the house as seen from Lloyd Park; this was once part of the extensive gardens to the house, but they were gifted to the people of Walthamstow by the family of a later resident of Water House.  This was magazine, comic and newspaper publisher Edward Lloyd.
