Went here the other day and saw it and figured why not? The place is a historical site for Samuel Johnson a famous English man. He made the first official dictionary, which is a pretty cool concept all in all.
The place itself consists of a tall house, Samuel Johnson's original home and you get to look around and see stuff he did in his life.
It's a free experience and really chill and accepts public donations to stay afloat.

Came to Lichfield for this and was a treat. Full of artifacts that was Johnson's. The staff were so interesting and generous with their time. Spent some time looking at his dictionary. Really want one now!!! This could end up being expensive. Loved it.

Every staff works very hard here, their efforts making this museum always warm and sweet. Just want to say thank you for all stuff and volunteers here, your smile like bright sunshine, I feel like back home. (I wish this was my home🤣)
