Mr Straw's House

One of the lesser-known National Trust treasures is 5-7 Blythe Grove, Worksop. The semi-detached family home, known as Mr Straw's House, doesn't particularly stand out on the street, and its not known for any fantastically valuable antiques. What makes it so special is that nothing has changed in the home since the 1920s: everything from the decorations to the food on the shelves.

So how did this happen, and this the Trust's oddest property?
