Harvard House
Harvard House stands at what is now 26 High Street, Stratford-upon-Avon, in Warwickshire, England. Once known as the Ancient House, It was built in 1596, by Thomas Rogers, grandfather of the benefactor of Harvard University, John Harvard, following the disastrous fires in 1594 and 1595 which destroyed much of the town centre. The House has been cared for by the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, on behalf of Harvard University, since 1990. It has been listed as a grade I listed building since October 1951.
