Kirkham House Open Day
English Heritage Trust, Kirkham House, Kirkham Street, Paignton, Devon, TQ3 3AX
As part of the 2026 Heritage Open Days Festival, Kirkham House will be open to visitors. On the Saturday you will be able to wander through the House, exploring on your own. On the Sunday, House stewards from Paignton Heritage Society will be on hand to give more information and run house tours. No need to book, just come along!
This well-preserved late medieval house, built of local stone, lies near the centre of the Devon town of Paignton. It probably belonged to a well-to-do landowning or merchant family, and had a grand hall with space for up to 20 people to dine together. The house now contains modern furniture, illustrating traditional craftsmanship and the original use of the rooms.
