Dower Houses: Our Tribute To Dame Maggie Smith | 49

"If these walls could talk..." | Please join us as we discuss all things country houses. These are far more than mere bricks and mortar; they are family homes - living, breathing, changing and adapting over time. On The Country House Podcast we explore everything from their architectural history, gardens and collections to the lives of those who have lived and worked in them. The goal of our platform remains true to its founding principles. We hope to inform people on a subject we are knowledgeable about, while proving that architectural and art history are accessible and engaging for&nbsp;everyone&nbsp;and can be enjoyed by&nbsp;all&nbsp;of us, whatever background or demographic we come from! Country houses bring these subjects to life - their architecture encapsulates the progress of nations through the centuries, their collections speak of changing tastes, and their social histories include the lives of many great and powerful figures (and occasionally some rather unsavoury ones!) Country houses are not only beautiful buildings, but also important historical monuments and essential aspects of our respective national identities.
