Victorian tea trader Frederick John Horniman began collecting specimens and artefacts from around the world in the 1860's. He opened part of his family house to the public so they could view the riches he had collected, and eventually commissioned construction of a new museum, which opened in 1901. Entrance to the Museum and Gardens is FREE - and highly recommended! See www.horniman.ac.uk.
