The London Study Centre: Information and Tour

Daniel House: The London Study Centre

First occupied by Samford students in the fall of 1984, Daniel House--the Samford University London Study Centre--was built in 1874-75 as a fashionable single-family, terraced home in a suburban area west of central London. Though built in the Victorian period, it is Georgian in style. Through its long history, the house and its usage have reflected changing times in the neighborhood. By the 1930s, the large homes were being divided into "flats," usually with one family or occupant per floor. By the 1940s, the property was in use as a rooming house and in the 1960s was converted to a small, family-owned bed and breakfast hotel. Samford University purchased the property in 1984, and today Daniel House serves as home and classroom to Samford students and faculty participating in the university's London Programs.
