It is the day many had been waiting for; Whitehall Museum is officially open once again.
Built around 1500 in the heart of Cheam Village, the Grade II listed building has now been "fully restored" after Sutton Council secured a grant of £1.9m from the National Lottery.
Repair work to the building involved tackling a damp problem and removing some "intrusive" 20th-century fixtures, while other original features have been restored.
Internal adaptations and two new extensions, including a new lift and stairs, have also been made.
The restoration work has also created an additional meeting space for local groups and school visits.
