Ninety seconds on Tucker House
Tucker House is shut for conservation, so see the Water Street front and the alley, and spend your museum time at the Globe instead. When it reopens, Rainey's barber shop is the room to see.
For now you see the Water Street front and Barber's Alley down the side, where the barber shop was entered. A few steps along the alley, Smith's Garden is a small public garden kept by the Garden Club of Bermuda, and it is open.
When the house reopens, the rooms hold portraits, fine porcelain and Bermuda cedar furniture, including an eighteenth-century tea table and a mahogany four-poster bed. The shop was in the old ground-floor kitchen, and the basement shows finds from a dig in the grounds.
Give it fifteen minutes from the street, then walk up to King's Square for the Globe.
