In this two-storeyed house, J M Barrie (1860 - 1937) was born. The upper floors are furnished as they may have been when Barrie lived there. The adjacent house, No 11, contains an exhibition - The Genius of J M Barrie - about Barrie's literary and theatrical works. The outside wash house is said to have been his first theatre. Audio programme.
