Fulham Palace is a remarkable place, the estate was owned by the Bishops of London for over 1500 years and the Palace was their country home from at least the 11th century. Vacated by the Bishops in 1975 it is now leased by Hammersmith and Fulham council and operated by the Fulham Palace Trust. Today the Palace's stately rooms house a museum, gallery, cafe and offices. The ancient, botanical gardens extend 70 acres.
