Stay the Night

Admire the wonderful facade of the Clayton Hotel, which once housed Edward Everard's Printing Works. One of his great passions was the arts and crafts movement and he vowed to use as many traditional techniques as possible in his own business. He was greatly inspired by William Morris - inventor of the Kelmscott Press - which required books to be decorated and printed by hand.
