Clandon Park (Surrey), the Maori house.

This is a Māori meeting house named Hinemihi. This was originally situated near Rotorua in New Zealand and provided shelter to local people during the eruption of Mount Tarawera in 1886. The building was covered in ash and surrounded by lava, but its occupants survived. It remained half buried until 1892 when Lord Onslow, then Governor General of New Zealand, had it removed and shipped to England.
