Moreton House, Highgate Village
Moreton House, Highgate Village, London, is a Grade II listed early Georgian house at 14 South Grove, built around 1715. It is especially known for its connection with the poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge, who arrived there in 1816 to stay with Dr James Gillman while seeking help for his opium addiction. This painting celebrates the house's red-brick detail, dark turquoise windows, formal knot gardens, and grand doorway. Spot the boot scraper by the steps.
