The entrance to this lodge appears uninviting because it is at the rear of the building, with the true façade facing downhill. Within, however, it offers a fascinating glimpse into life in Elizabethan Bristol. Built around 1590, it contains the last surviving suite of 16th century rooms in Bristol, particularly notable for the carved oak paneling, stone chimney-piece, and plasterwork ceiling. Other rooms feature 17th and 18th century portraits, and exquisite walnut and gilt furniture. Once the home of Lady Byron, the poet's widow, it is now owned by the City Council, and the Tudor gardens have recently enjoyed a programme of restoration. Look out for their "living history days" when actors dress up in period costume and really bring the house to life. Admission: free
