Founded in 1982 by David J Tate MBE, Lilliput Lane Ltd. gained worldwide acclaim for its highly detailed miniatures inspired by real British cottages and landmarks. Each piece was hand-cast and painted in the company’s Cumbrian workshops, ensuring no two cottages were ever quite the same.
The Runswick House model captures the quiet charm of Runswick Bay, a historic fishing village on the North Yorkshire coast — known for its steep stone cottages and terracotta roofs nestled against the cliffs.
Used but well-cared-for vintage condition. No damage or repairs noted. Slight age-related wear to the base and paintwork consistent with long-term display and storage. Box shows light handling marks.
All Lillys RoseRed items are carefully packed, tracked, and fully insured for peace of mind. Eco-friendly packaging materials are used wherever possible.
