Hidden London: William Morris Gallery

The London List

Mention William Morris, and most people think of beautiful fabric or wallpaper designs inspired by nature. There’s scarcely a country house that has not, at some stage, been adorned by the wonderfully named Strawberry Thief or an aspirant Chelsea kitchen decked out in Willow Bough. But Morris was much more than the inspiration for a pattern on a Liberty dress.
