Washington Old Hall
| View Cart ⇗ | Info
Willian de Wessyngton was a forebear of George Washington, the first President of the United States. Though it was not from Washington, Sunderland, that George Washington’s great-grandfather John Washington left for Virginia, but from Essex, Washington Old Hall was the family home of George Washington’s ancestors, and the present structure does incorporate small parts of the medieval home in which they lived.
