Chamber 7 - Stewart

Chamber 7 - Stewart was the first larger chamber accessible from Chamber 1 - Tycos on the right of the space relative to the front entrance. It was also between Chamber 6 - Rome Beauty and Chamber 8 - Democrat, and also had natural light coming in from the emergency exit door onto Peacock Road from Chamber 4 - Newton.

A furniture dealer had this space from 1993 to 2004. 

Then in mid-July 2004 Ian Swinton of Swinton's Antiques closed his shop in Hampton Street, Hampton, and took up this chamber. <The Age, “Market for antiques fades”, July 25, 2004, via Wayback Machine>
