The United Kingdom Pavilion at Epcot provides a wide range of styles of architecture from various times during the history of the UK. The first building on the left of the plaza features a thatch roof. The thatched roof and half-timbered walls are modeled after Anne Hathaway's cottage at Stratford-Upon-Avon in the 1500s*. Inside is The Tea Caddy, a small shop that sells Twinings Tea and various other tea accessories.
Because it located inside Epcot, park admission is required to view this waymark.
