The Ranger's house is a 5 minute wall from my house. I have lived in Lewisham for almost 3 years and I can't believe I have never been here before. The art collection is fantastic. There is even a Botticelli painting in there!!! The staff here are incredibly knowledgeable about the collection and offered a lot of insight into both the art collection and the Ranger's house. This is one of the best things to do in Greenwich but I don't feel as though I hear many people talk about it! If you are in South East London - make sure sure you include this - you definitly won't regret it.
I actually didn't realise you couldn't take photos as no one said anything and there were no signs.
There are over 700 items on display across the two floors of this house. Perhaps my favourite items were the incredibly beautiful and intricate jewellery and the Renaissance Ceramics; the Maiolica on display here is tin-glazed pottery decorated in bright colours from 15th/16th Century.
