Oliver Cromwell was leader of Parliament’s armies against the King in the English Civil War. He lived in Ely prior to being elected Member of Parliament for Cambridge in 1640. Cromwell inherited the house from an uncle, and in 1636 he and his family moved in. Sections of the timber-framed building date back centuries. Oak-panelled rooms date from the 1570s; other sections pre- and post-date these. Long after Cromwell left, the house became a brewery, then a vicarage. It is now Ely’s Tourist Information Centre and there is a shop on the premises.
