EDITORS COMMENTS
The Smallest House in Great Britain, also known as the Quay House, is a unique and intriguing historical landmark located on the picturesque quay in Conwy, Wales. This tiny dwelling, which measures only 3 meters (10 feet) wide and 6 meters (20 feet) long, holds the title of the smallest house in the country. The photograph, taken circa 1902, captures the essence of this remarkable structure as it once was, with an extremely formidable Welsh lady standing outside. Her posture exudes a sense of pride and ownership, as if she is the guardian of this quirky and unassuming property. The Quay House, which has not been occupied since 1900, is a testament to the rich history and culture of Wales. Its squashed and compact design is a result of the medieval town's building regulations, which dictated that no house could be built wider than the width of a neighbouring house. This quaint and small building, with its distinctive timber-framed facade and slate roof, has become a popular tourist attraction in Conwy, drawing visitors from all corners of the globe. The photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to imagine the daily lives of the people who once called this tiny house their home. It serves as a reminder of the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the Welsh people, who managed to create comfortable living spaces even in the most challenging of circumstances. The Quay House stands as a symbol of Wales' unique architectural heritage, and a testament to the enduring allure of the smallest things in life.
