Ellen Terry's House - Tower Cottage. |
Famous as she, was, she yet
found time frequently to attend and give advice on the town's amateur
theatricals. The Duke of Wellington stayed here when he reviewed his troops
during the Napoleonic Wars. 
This
house was built early in the 17th century. Dame Ellen Terry, probably
the most famous actress of the 19th century made this her home when she
lived in Winchelsea from 1896 until 1906.
