A local highlight, this is a lovely small museum dedicated to William Morris. It's in Lloyd Park, which is a great park, and just down the road from The Bell pub, where you can go for a beer and lunch.

Five minutes from the house, this is a great and fair-priced cafe for healthy and tasty Turkish food - great for rice and kebabs. (If you want to be less healthy, order some of their deep-fried ice-cream!) It's very popular with locals and often buzzing.

Shopping

This is a legendary flower market, popular with the Instagram generation! It's a Sunday only market, so plan your trip and get there early, as the crowds are intense. You'll be a short walk from Shoreditch, which is also busy and fun on a Sunday.
