Queens House, Greenwich

It is great that the Queen's House is now free to enter and is a treasure trove of paintings and architecture. Designed by Inigo Jones in 1616 it is filled with works of art representing the 400 years by artists including Gainsborough, Canaletto, Reynolds, LS Lowry, Stubbs and Hogarth. I enjoyed the Tulip Staircase, the first centrally unsupported helical stairs constructed in England, and the Great Hall in particular.
