Why Dairy House??

When you come to Dairy House Antiques have you ever wondered what the lovely building was built for?
Well the name and the lovely cool rooms may have given it away…but here are a few old photos of the Dairy House before the antiques & interiors took over.

The approach to Semley Station.
In the 1870’s local milk was sent daily by train to London.
Eventually the original building evolved into the Dairy & Cheese room that is know Dairy House Antiques.
