Peter the Great's Residence at Deptford, London, 1850: A Glimpse into an Unusual Historical Episode This evocative image captures Peter the Great's house at Deptford, London, as it stood in 1850. The Czar of Muscovy, renowned for his ambitious reforms and European travels, spent some time at Sayes Court, which was then located near the bustling docks. Sayes Court, also known as Says or Seas Court, was the English residence of John Evelyn, a celebrated author, diarist, and gardener. Peter the Great's stay at this location was not a permanent one, as Evelyn recounts in his writings from 1660-1, where he mentions repeated visits from the surveyor of His Majesty to assess the grounds of Sayes Court that Evelyn had challenged. The exact reason for Peter the Great's presence at Sayes Court remains a subject of debate among historians. Some believe it was a diplomatic visit, while others suggest it was a strategic move to learn about the latest advancements in shipbuilding and naval technology, which were prevalent in the Deptford area at the time. Despite its historical significance, Sayes Court was not situated on a very secure footing, as evidenced by Evelyn's interactions with the surveyor. This image offers a glimpse into an intriguing historical episode, where the paths of a Russian Czar and an English gardener intersected in the heart of Deptford, London.
