Incredible 575 Wandsworth Road - A National Trust Property
Talks & Demos, History | Nationwide event hosted by North London District Branch
Thursday 18 September 2025 at 2.00pm
Paul Fitton explores the unique 575 Wandsworth Road in a presentation. The hand-carved fretwork interior of this modest, early 19th-century, terraced house is enthralling and inspiring. The house was acquired by the National Trust in 2010, because of the rich and striking interiors created by Khadambi Asalache (1935-2006), a Kenyan-born poet, novelist, philosopher of mathematics and British civil servant. He bought the house in 1981 while working at the Treasury and over a period of 20 years turned his home into a work of art. Free light refreshments.
