This week’s photo by thelondoner is a Jacobean gem, Boston Manor House in Brentford.

The house was built in the early 1620s. The elegant state rooms have an elaborate decorated plaster ceiling and are open to the public along with the dining room where King William IV once dined.

If you’re exploring London this weekend, don’t forget to add your pictures to the Visit London Flickr group.

It’s London architecture appreciation time! This week’s photo features one of the posh villas in Regent’s Park by Dave TAZ.

This villa isn’t open to the public, but there are plenty of historic houses in London you can visit.

Add your photos to the Visit London Flickr pool and your view of London could be featured on the blog next week.
