Summary

Growing up in California, Dennis Severs fell in love with the England he saw in old black and white movies. At seventeen, he came to London, looking for a home with a heart. In 1979, he found one, a run-down silk-weaver's house in Spitalfields, and over the next twenty years he transformed it into an enchanted time-capsule.

Born in California in 1948, died in London in 1999. He came to live in England in 1967. Ran tours of London in a horse-drawn carriage. Then bought 18 Folgate Street and created his own 'still-life drama' of life and the house as they used to be.
