16 New Street

Give your children an unforgettable experience and discover how people lived 200 years ago inside one of the finest Georgian houses in St Helier.

To walk through the front door of 16 New Street is to step back in time and experience life in Regency Jersey. This magnificent Georgian town house, which has recently been restored by the Trust offers a unique learning environment where families can immerse themselves in the past through the sights and smells of the working house.

Children of all ages are welcomed by the staff and volunteers at 16 New Street and we offer an extensive programme of activities to keep our young visitors entertained, including:

A free children’s guidebook
A unique quiz, where you can win a sticker if you get all the questions right
A hunt for miniature tea sets, hidden in every room
The opportunity to play with our own dolls’ house
A chance to meet the resident housekeeper in the Georgian Kitchen – and taste her food!
The opportunity to dress up in replica costumes
