You have to wonder if the last occupant of Britain's smallest house - Robert Jones- was a bit of a sadist; the fisherman was 6foot 3 inches tall.
Yet the diminuitive size of the house (also known as Quay House) didn't deter Mr Jones in 1900, and it hasn't put off the thousands of visitors who come each year to the Welsh village of Conwy to look at the quaint 16th-century building.The house has just two cramped rooms and can only fit in four people at a time. Visitors from all over the world - including the States and Japan - come for the tours, which take place daily, and feature guides wearing traditional dress.
然而在当年(1900年),房子的大小并打消琼斯先生购买这座房子(又名码头房子)的愿望。今天,来自全世界的游客来到英国康威的这个威尔士村庄来观赏这个有趣的16世纪的建筑。这个房子只有两个狭小的房间,一次只能容纳最多4人。而它的魅力却让来自于日本或美国等各国的游客们每天川流不息。房子的导游穿着当年的传统服饰,让你如同真的置身于古代。
The house measures only 1.8 metres wide, and was registered in the Guinness Book Of World Records as Britain's smallest house. Admission is ridiculously cheap too - 50p for kids and £1 for adults.
