Join us on Thursday 17 September at The Gothic Warehouse for a fascinating heritage talk with Professor Ruth Larsen exploring the lives of elite women in Georgian country houses.
In Elite Women and the Georgian Country House: Roles and Responsibilities, Professor Larsen will uncover how wealthy women in the 18th century managed estates, households and social expectations, revealing the influence and responsibilities they held behind the scenes of Britain’s great country homes.
This engaging evening offers a unique insight into Georgian society and the often-overlooked role of women in shaping and maintaining country house life.
