So fascinating. I lived in Blackheath for 4 years in the late “60’s, and never knew about Morden College. Thank you for “discovering” it for us.

Would be more than happy to spend out my remaining days here

We have a similar institution–stemming from the early 19th cent.–called Sailors’ Snug Harbor here on Staten Island in New York City. But once pensions and social security began to be prevalent, it was no longer needed and now it houses art galleries, gardens, a Chinese scholars’ garden etc. We were just there with the dog this AM.

What a gorgeous place… and yet another hidden London treasure.

My immediate reaction on seeing the photos was that it reminded me of the Bethnal Green Chest Hospital, especially the main entrance with its mixture of red brick and white stonework.

And lo and behold there was another veteran mulberry tree – spooky!

It looks idyllic and I do hope that its residents enjoy their existence. Such a retirement home is, in theory at least, just what I need at present!
