Queen Elizabeth II's Wendy House (that's a playhouse to Americans)

This child-sized cottage was built for the Queen on the grounds of Windsor's Royal Lodge when she was a little girl.  Y Bwthyn Bach, or The Little House, and all of its contents, was built at 2/3's scale by architect Edmund Wilmott, and was a gift on behalf of the people of Wales to Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret in 1932 on Princess Elizabeth sixth birthday.
