Speke Hall
Speke Hall is a wood-framed wattle-and-daub Tudor manor house in Speke, Liverpool, England. It is one of the finest surviving examples of its kind.
History
Construction of the current building began in 1530, though earlier buildings had been on the site, parts of which are incorporated into today's structure. The Great Hall was the first part of the house to be built, in 1530. The Great (or Oak) Parlour wing was added in 1531. Around this time the North Bay was also added to the house. Between 1540 and 1570 the south wing was altered and extended. The west wing was added between 1546 and 1547. The last significant change to the building was in 1598, when the north range was added by Edward Norris. Since then there have only been minor changes to the Hall and gardens.
The oak frame, typical of the period, rests on a base of red sandstone surrounded by a now dry moat. The main beams of the house are stiffened with smaller timbers and filled with wattle and daub.
The house features a thunderbox toilet, a priest hole and a special observation hole built into a chimney in a bedroom to allow the occupant to see the approach to the house to warn the priest that people were coming. There is also an eavesdrop (a small open hole under the eaves of the house) which allowed a servant to listen in on the conversations of people awaiting admission at the original front door.

National trust
A national trust is an organisation dedicated to preserving the cultural heritage of a particular geographic region. Although the focus of a national trust may vary by region, the principal role is to ensure the preservation of historically significant items, and to conserve areas of natural beauty. National trusts generally operate as private non-profit organizations. The first such trust organisation, The Trustees of Reservations, originated in 1890 as a regional group serving the state of Massachusetts, USA. The first national trust, the National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty, was founded in England in 1895 and operates as a charitable organisation serving England, Wales and Northern Ireland (it is commonly known in the UK as the National Trust). Other national trusts have since been set up around the world.
In 2007, the International National Trusts Organisation (INTO) was established at a gathering in New Delhi, India, with a mandate to support collaboration and best practices among national trusts and similar associations. It has member organisations from over 50 countries.

National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty
The National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty, known as the National Trust, is a conservation organisation in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. In Scotland, there is an independent National Trust for Scotland.
The trust was founded in 1895 and given statutory powers, starting with the National Trust Act 1907. Historically, the trust tended to focus on English country houses, which still make up the largest part of its holdings, but it also protects historic landscapes such as in the Lake District, historic urban properties, and nature reserves.
The trust describes itself as "a charity that works to preserve and protect historic places and spaces—for ever, for everyone." It owns many heritage properties, including historic houses and gardens, industrial monuments, and social history sites. It is one of the largest landowners in the United Kingdom, owning many beauty spots, most of which are open to the public free of charge. It is the largest membership organisation in the United Kingdom, and one of the largest UK charities by income and assets.

National Trust of Australia
The National Trust of Australia, officially the Australian Council of National Trusts (ACNT), is the Australian national peak body for community-based, non-government organisations committed to promoting and conserving Australia's indigenous, natural and historic heritage.
Incorporated in 1965, it federates the eight autonomous National Trusts in each Australian state and internal self-governing territory, providing them with a national secretariat and a national and international presence.
Collectively, the constituent National Trusts own or manage over 300 heritage places (the majority held in perpetuity), and manage a volunteer workforce of 7000 while also employing about 350 people nationwide. Around 1,000,000 visitors experience the properties and their collections in Australia each year.
History
Modelled on the National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty and inspired by local campaigns to conserve native bushland and preserve old buildings, the first Australian National Trusts were formed in New South Wales in 1945, South Australia in 1955 and Victoria in 1956; followed later in Western Australia, Tasmania and Queensland.

Speke
Coordinates: 53°20′27″N 2°50′28″W / 53.3409°N 2.8410°W / 53.3409; -2.8410
Speke (/ˈspiːk/) is an area of Liverpool, Merseyside, England, close to the boundaries of the Metropolitan Borough of Knowsley. It is 7.7 miles (12.4 km) south east of the city centre and to the west of the town of Widnes.
Speke is bordered by a number of other areas; Garston, Hunts Cross, Halewood and Hale Village and is located near to the widest part of the River Mersey.
History
The name derives from the Old English Spec, meaning 'brushwood'. It was known as Spec in the Domesday Book, which gave Speke Hall as one of the properties held by Uctred. (Today Speke Hall, now a Tudor wood-framed house, is open to the public.)
In the mid 14th century, the manors of Speke, Whiston, Skelmersdale, and Parr were held by William Dacre, 2nd Baron Dacre.
Until the 1930s, Speke was a small village with a population of 400; by the end of the 1950s more than 25,000 people were living in the area. The local All Saints Church was built by the last resident owner of Speke Hall, Miss Adelaide Watt.

Mahsuda Snaith is a writer of novels and short stories. Her debut novel ‘The Things We Thought We Knew’ (Black Swan) was released in 2017 when she was named an ‘Observer New Face of Fiction’. Her second novel ‘How to Find Home’ (Black Swan) was chosen as a BBC Radio 4 ‘Book at Bedtime’. She is the winner of the SI Leeds Literary Prize 2014 and Bristol Short Story Prize 2014.
Mahsuda has led creative writing workshops in universities, hospitals, schools and a homeless hostel and has worked as a writing mentor for a variety of writing organisations. She is a commissioned writer for the Colonial Countryside project and her short story ‘The Panther’s Tale’ is included in ‘Hag: Forgotten Folktales Retold’ (Virago) which is also available as a podcast from Audible. Mahsuda works as a writing tutor at The Novelry and is currently working on her third novel.
For Mahsuda’s YouTube writing workshops please go to the Videos Page on her website (https://mahsudasnaith.com/). You can find Mahsuda on Twitter on @mahsudasnaith or on Instagram on @mahsudasnaith.
Colonial Countryside is a book of commissioned poems and short stories produced by ten global majority writers featuring National Trust houses with significant colonial histories. This includes properties whose owners engaged in the slavery business, in colonial administration or who were involved with the East India Company or British rule in India.
Historians have accompanied these pieces with commentaries detailing the evidence upon which each creative commission was based. The book ends with a photo essay by the project’s commissioned photographer, Ingrid Pollard, the Turner Prize shortlisted artist who has pioneered critical interventions into the supposed whiteness of the British countryside.
Peter Kalu’s story gives an account of Richard Watt of Speke Hall reflecting on his Jamaican experiences; Karen Onojaife’s story is set in Charlecote Park where a once-favoured Black page finds himself cut adrift; Jacqueline Crooks’ magical realist tale brings together an abused Indian princess and enslaved African employed in the mahogany trade; Ayanna Lloyd Banwo has written about Diego, the Spanish-speaking African who became Drake’s closest confidante; Masuda Snaith’s short story cycle tracks the cross-currents of empire across Lord Curzon’s Kedleston Hall; Maria Thomas’s account of Penrhyn Castle links past and present. It is a gothic tale of history biting back. Malachi’s story features a young Black man who dates a white girl with a taste for country house visiting, including Calke Abbey. Other contributions include poetic meditations on artefacts to be found in country houses. Hannah Lowe reflects on the taste for Chinoiserie, Seni Seneviratne gives voice to the enslaved children trapped within the frames of 18th century art and Andre Bagoo makes connections between William Blathwayt of Dyrham Park and two stands featuring kneeling African men, brought to the house by his uncle in the seventeenth century.

How the National Trust is restoring the historic house at Dyrham Park
Step inside the impressive Baroque mansion of Dyrham Park. In this video, you’ll get a unique insight into the work that National Trust curators and experts are doing to restore the house back to its former 17th-century glory. Dyrham was once home to William Blathwayt, who transformed the house and gardens to what we see today. Blathwayt was Secretary at War to William III, and his travels and connections enabled him to use Carrara marble tiles and luxurious silk fabrics in the house’s renovations, some of which were Indian textiles imported through the Dutch East India Company. Experts at the National Trust are now working to restore the house to bring these historic features back to life. Internal conservation includes reproducing the colours that would have featured when Blathwayt w...

It’s taken 30 years for archaeologists to uncover what’s hidden underground at Stourhead, Wiltshire
It’s taken three decades to discover the medieval house at Stourhead in Wiltshire.

Step inside the impressive Baroque mansion of Dyrham Park. In this video, you’ll get a unique insight into the work that National Trust curators and experts are doing to restore the house back to its former 17th-century glory.
Dyrham was once home to William Blathwayt, who transformed the house and gardens to what we see today. Blathwayt was Secretary at War to William III, and his travels and connections enabled him to use Carrara marble tiles and luxurious silk fabrics in the house’s renovations, some of which were Indian textiles imported through the Dutch East India Company.
Experts at the National Trust are now working to restore the house to bring these historic features back to life. Internal conservation includes reproducing the colours that would have featured when Blathwayt was living at Dyrham. Thanks to the support of Little Greene, the National Trust can match the exact colours up and bring the history of this grand house to life.
Externally, the grand gates at the end of the Avenue are also being restored. These would have been used to welcome guests as they approached the house in horse and carriage. In the video, you can learn more about how the gates are being re-fitted after months of repairs.
Dyrham Park has been used for the setting for many notable films and TV series. Pursuit of Love, starring Lily James and Andrew Scott, included scenes filmed in the Gilt Leather Parlour, which was transformed into a ballroom. Memorable highlights include Andrew Scott dancing around the Parlour at Dyrham in silk pyjamas.
Dyrham also appeared as the Warleggan Town House in Poldark, starring Aiden Turner and Eleanor Tomlinson, and was used as the exterior of Darlington Hall in The Remains of the Day, starring Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson.
It’s thanks to supporters and visitors that the National Trust can continue to restore and protect these historic places for everyone, for ever.

Step inside the impressive Baroque mansion of Dyrham Park. In this video, you’ll get a unique insight into the work that National Trust curators and experts are doing to restore the house back to its former 17th-century glory.
Dyrham was once home to William Blathwayt, who transformed the house and gardens to what we see today. Blathwayt was Secretary at War to William III, and his travels and connections enabled him to use Carrara marble tiles and luxurious silk fabrics in the house’s renovations, some of which were Indian textiles imported through the Dutch East India Company.
Experts at the National Trust are now working to restore the house to bring these historic features back to life. Internal conservation includes reproducing the colours that would have featured when Blathwayt was living at Dyrham. Thanks to the support of Little Greene, the National Trust can match the exact colours up and bring the history of this grand house to life.
Externally, the grand gates at the end of the Avenue are also being restored. These would have been used to welcome guests as they approached the house in horse and carriage. In the video, you can learn more about how the gates are being re-fitted after months of repairs.
Dyrham Park has been used for the setting for many notable films and TV series. Pursuit of Love, starring Lily James and Andrew Scott, included scenes filmed in the Gilt Leather Parlour, which was transformed into a ballroom. Memorable highlights include Andrew Scott dancing around the Parlour at Dyrham in silk pyjamas.
Dyrham also appeared as the Warleggan Town House in Poldark, starring Aiden Turner and Eleanor Tomlinson, and was used as the exterior of Darlington Hall in The Remains of the Day, starring Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson.
It’s thanks to supporters and visitors that the National Trust can continue to restore and protect these historic places for everyone, for ever.

It’s taken three decades to discover the medieval house at Stourhead in Wiltshire. Learn how archaeologists found the historic remains of the original building as featured on BBC’s Hidden Treasures of the National Trust.
Filmed in 2023, National Trust archaeologist Martin Papworth and Stourhead’s archaeology team reveal how the old house was destroyed to make space for the mansion that you can still visit today. You’ll learn how the dig team found the original walls, which led to further discoveries such as a fireplace and animal bones. You’ll also hear how their findings will be analysed to determine the age of the building and the items found within it.
You can see more from the excavation in BBC’s Hidden Treasures of the National Trust: https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/discover/film-tv/hidden-treasures-of-the-national-trust
The National Trust cares for many archaeological sites which tell us more about what life was like for people throughout history.

Join guest speaker, Professor Mary Beard, a leading classicist, historian, author and broadcaster, as she focuses on the historic houses and collections in the care of the National Trust. This is the second annual Octavia Hill Lecture from the National Trust, in collaboration with Times Radio.
Professor Beard asks ‘Who owns the past?’ She examines what the past is for, how we can learn from and challenge it, and how we can bring it to life. Throughout her lecture, Professor Beard considers issues of authenticity and ownership and questions who makes the decisions about collection displays. She looks at how the past is reconstructed and how it's discussed and presented.
Professor Beard uses the National Trust and the historic houses in our care as a gateway to speak on wider debates around history, heritage and ownership, and to shed a light on what the past says about society and the wider world.
The histories, people and artefacts explored in this talk are drawn from a variety of the places in our care, including Dyrham Park in Gloucestershire, Wimpole in Cambridgeshire and The Children’s Country House at Sudbury in Derbyshire.
This lecture was recorded in front of a live audience on 19 March 2024 at The Royal Society, London, UK. We’re working in collaboration with Times Radio to bring history to everyone. Times Radio provides intelligent and thought-provoking live coverage of news, politics and culture. Together, through this series of annual lectures, respected voices and commentators lead us in reflecting on nature, beauty and history.

The gardens surrounding Wightwick Manor, cared for by the National Trust, are influenced by the Arts and Crafts Movement, which started in Britain during the late 19th century. This means the garden design extends into the house, where visitors can see flowers such as roses used as motifs for interiors and artworks.
Watch this video to discover how politics has also left its mark on the gardens that are still enjoyed by visitors today. You’ll see architectural artefacts from the Houses of Parliament and a tree planted by Clement Richard Attlee, the Labour Prime Minster who served from 1945 to 1951.
You’ll also learn about the history of the estate and its planting schemes and find out more about what the National Trust is doing to make the gardens more accessible for visitors.

Van 11 oktober 2018 tot en met 6 januari 2019 organiseert museum het Mauritshuis een bijzondere tentoonstelling rond zeventiende-eeuwse Hollandse schilderijen uit Britse landhuizen van de National Trust. In deze aflevering wordt Upton House behandeld. 11 October 2018 – 6 January 2019 - English country houses have traditionally been the home to Dutch Golden Age masters. Most of these paintings were acquired in the eighteenth century, the heyday of the English country house. Although over time many owners were forced to sell works to raise funds, there are still many extraordinary paintings to be found in country houses today.

How The National Trust Helps Preserve British Natural Landscapes | Britain's Treasures From The Air
Across the world, Britain is famed for its idyllic countryside – an incredibly diverse landscape of natural beauty, farmland and settlements. The richness of rural Britain also lies in its countless historic treasures from castle ruins to great gardens. The need to safeguard Britain's countryside and heritage for future generations gave rise to one of the greatest conservation charities in the world – The National Trust. Britain’s Treasures from the Air takes a spectacular look at how the National Trust has pursued its simple mission to preserve Britain's most valued places, 'for ever, for everyone.' From its humble beginnings over a century ago, it's now a national institution and one of Britain's biggest landowners with properties ranging from vast areas of countryside and coastline, t...

SUMMARY
=======
The National Trust, formally the National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty, is a conservation organisation in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and the largest membership organisation in the United Kingdom.The trust describes itself as "a charity that works to preserve and protect historic places and spaces—for ever, for everyone". The trust was founded in 1895 and given statutory powers, starting with the National Trust Act 1907. Historically, the trust tended to focus on English country houses, which still make up the largest part of its holdings, but it also protects historic landscapes such as in the Lake District, historic urban properties, and nature reserves. In Scotland, there is an independent National Trust for Scotland. The Trust has special powers to prevent land being sold off or mortgaged, although this can be over-ridden by Parliament.The National Trust has been the beneficiary of many large donations and bequests. It owns over 350 heritage properties, which includes many historic houses and gardens, industrial monuments, and social history sites. Most of these are open to the public, usually for a charge. Others are leased, on terms that manage to preserve their character. The Trust is one of the largest landowners in the United Kingdom, owning over 247,000 hectares (610,000 acres; 2,470 km2; 950 sq mi) of land, including many characteristic sites of natural beauty, most of which are open to the public free of charge.The Trust, one of the largest UK charities financially, is funded by membership subscriptions, entrance fees, legacies, and revenue from gift shops and restaurants within its properties. It has been accused of focusing too much on country estates, and in recent years, the trust has sought to broaden its activities by acquiring historic properties such as former mills, early factories, workhouses, and the childhood homes of Paul McCartney and John Lennon.In 2015, the trust undertook a governance review to mark the 10th anniversary of the current governance structure. The review led to the downsizing of the council and limitation of tenure to two terms.

Across the world, Britain is famed for its idyllic countryside – an incredibly diverse landscape of natural beauty, farmland and settlements. The richness of rural Britain also lies in its countless historic treasures from castle ruins to great gardens. The need to safeguard Britain's countryside and heritage for future generations gave rise to one of the greatest conservation charities in the world – The National Trust.
Britain’s Treasures from the Air takes a spectacular look at how the National Trust has pursued its simple mission to preserve Britain's most valued places, 'for ever, for everyone.' From its humble beginnings over a century ago, it's now a national institution and one of Britain's biggest landowners with properties ranging from vast areas of countryside and coastline, to churches and even entire villages!
Beautifully filmed from the air, the programme takes the viewer across England, Wales and Northern Ireland to witness the wealth of natural beauty and heritage that are currently in the care of The National Trust.

NATIONAL TRUST - Speke Hall -
Speke Hall is a wood-framed, Tudor manor house in Speke, Liverpool. It is owned by the National Trust and is a Grade I listed building.
Construction of the current building began under Sir William Norris in 1530, though earlier buildings had been on the site, parts of which are incorporated into today's structure.
The Great Hall was the first part of the house to be built in 1530.
The Great Parlour wing was added in 1531. Around this time the North Bay was also added to the house.
Between 1540 and 1570 the south wing was altered and extended. The west wing was added between 1546 and 1547. The last significant change to the building was in 1598, when the north range was added by Edward Norris.
The oak frame rests on a base of red sandstone surrounded by a now dry moat.
The Norrises were Roman Catholics, so during the turmoil of the Reformation, the house incorporated a priest hole as well as an observation hole built into a chimney in a bedroom, to allow the occupant to warn the priest that people were coming.
There is also an eavesdrop (a small open hole under the eaves of the house) which allowed a servant to listen in on the conversations of people awaiting admission at the original front door.

In the 1730s Lady Mary inherited the house, becoming an important and desirable heiress. Later she married the notorious Lord Sidney Beauclerk. ‘Worthless Sidney’, as he was known, loved high living and excess so much that eventually he was forced to break the news to his wife that he had gambled away the family fortunes.
Legend tells of Lady Mary, so overcome with grief and anger, picking up her infant son from his cradle and throwing him from the window into the moat below. She then went down into the Great Hall and committed suicide.

Mahsuda Snaith is a writer of novels and short stories. Her debut novel ‘The Things We Thought We Knew’ (Black Swan) was released in 2017 when she was named an ‘Observer New Face of Fiction’. Her second novel ‘How to Find Home’ (Black Swan) was chosen as a BBC Radio 4 ‘Book at Bedtime’. She is the winner of the SI Leeds Literary Prize 2014 and Bristol Short Story Prize 2014.
Mahsuda has led creative writing workshops in universities, hospitals, schools and a homeless hostel and has worked as a writing mentor for a variety of writing organisations. She is a commissioned writer for the Colonial Countryside project and her short story ‘The Panther’s Tale’ is included in ‘Hag: Forgotten Folktales Retold’ (Virago) which is also available as a podcast from Audible. Mahsuda works as a writing tutor at The Novelry and is currently working on her third novel.

Colonial Countryside is a book of commissioned poems and short stories produced by ten global majority writers featuring National Trust houses with significant colonial histories. This includes properties whose owners engaged in the slavery business, in colonial administration or who were involved with the East India Company or British rule in India.
Historians have accompanied these pieces with commentaries detailing the evidence upon which each creative commission was based. The book ends with a photo essay by the project’s commissioned photographer, Ingrid Pollard, the Turner Prize shortlisted artist who has pioneered critical interventions into the supposed whiteness of the British countryside.
Peter Kalu’s story gives an account of Richard Watt of Speke Hall reflecting on his Jamaican experiences; Karen Onojaife’s story is set in Charlecote Park where a once-favoured Black page finds himself cut adrift; Jacqueline Crooks’ magical realist tale brings together an abused Indian princess and enslaved African employed in the mahogany trade; Ayanna Lloyd Banwo has written about Diego, the Spanish-speaking African who became Drake’s closest confidante; Masuda Snaith’s short story cycle tracks the cross-currents of empire across Lord Curzon’s Kedleston Hall; Maria Thomas’s account of Penrhyn Castle links past and present. It is a gothic tale of history biting back. Malachi’s story features a young Black man who dates a white girl with a taste for country house visiting, including Calke Abbey. Other contributions include poetic meditations on artefacts to be found in country houses. Hannah Lowe reflects on the taste for Chinoiserie, Seni Seneviratne gives voice to the enslaved children trapped within the frames of 18th century art and Andre Bagoo makes connections between William Blathwayt of Dyrham Park and two stands featuring kneeling African men, brought to the house by his uncle in the seventeenth century.

Speke Hall
Speke Hall is a wood-framed wattle-and-daub Tudor manor house in Speke, Liverpool, England. It is one of the finest surviving examples of its kind.
History
Construction of the current building began in 1530, though earlier buildings had been on the site, parts of which are incorporated into today's structure. The Great Hall was the first part of the house to be built, in 1530. The Great (or Oak) Parlour wing was added in 1531. Around this time the North Bay was also added to the house. Between 1540 and 1570 the south wing was altered and extended. The west wing was added between 1546 and 1547. The last significant change to the building was in 1598, when the north range was added by Edward Norris. Since then there have only been minor changes to the Hall and gardens.
The oak frame, typical of the period, rests on a base of red sandstone surrounded by a now dry moat. The main beams of the house are stiffened with smaller timbers and filled with wattle and daub.
The house features a thunderbox toilet, a priest hole and a special observation hole built into a chimney in a bedroom to allow the occupant to see the approach to the house to warn the priest that people were coming. There is also an eavesdrop (a small open hole under the eaves of the house) which allowed a servant to listen in on the conversations of people awaiting admission at the original front door.

Step inside the impressive Baroque mansion of Dyrham Park. In this video, you’ll get a unique insight into the work that National Trust curators and experts are doing to restore the house back to its former 17th-century glory.
Dyrham was once home to William Blathwayt, who transformed the house and gardens to what we see today. Blathwayt was Secretary at War to William III, and his travels and connections enabled him to use Carrara marble tiles and luxurious silk fabrics in the house’s renovations, some of which were Indian textiles imported through the Dutch East India Company.
Experts at the National Trust are now working to restore the house to bring these historic features back to life. Internal conservation includes reproducing the colours that would have featured when Blathwayt was living at Dyrham. Thanks to the support of Little Greene, the National Trust can match the exact colours up and bring the history of this grand house to life.
Externally, the grand gates at the end of the Avenue are also being restored. These would have been used to welcome guests as they approached the house in horse and carriage. In the video, you can learn more about how the gates are being re-fitted after months of repairs.
Dyrham Park has been used for the setting for many notable films and TV series. Pursuit of Love, starring Lily James and Andrew Scott, included scenes filmed in the Gilt Leather Parlour, which was transformed into a ballroom. Memorable highlights include Andrew Scott dancing around the Parlour at Dyrham in silk pyjamas.
Dyrham also appeared as the Warleggan Town House in Poldark, starring Aiden Turner and Eleanor Tomlinson, and was used as the exterior of Darlington Hall in The Remains of the Day, starring Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson.
It’s thanks to supporters and visitors that the National Trust can continue to restore and protect these historic places for everyone, for ever.

It’s taken three decades to discover the medieval house at Stourhead in Wiltshire. Learn how archaeologists found the historic remains of the original building as featured on BBC’s Hidden Treasures of the National Trust.
Filmed in 2023, National Trust archaeologist Martin Papworth and Stourhead’s archaeology team reveal how the old house was destroyed to make space for the mansion that you can still visit today. You’ll learn how the dig team found the original walls, which led to further discoveries such as a fireplace and animal bones. You’ll also hear how their findings will be analysed to determine the age of the building and the items found within it.

Join guest speaker, Professor Mary Beard, a leading classicist, historian, author and broadcaster, as she focuses on the historic houses and collections in the care of the National Trust. This is the second annual Octavia Hill Lecture from the National Trust, in collaboration with Times Radio.
Professor Beard asks ‘Who owns the past?’ She examines what the past is for, how we can learn from and challenge it, and how we can bring it to life. Throughout her lecture, Professor Beard considers issues of authenticity and ownership and questions who makes the decisions about collection displays. She looks at how the past is reconstructed and how it's discussed and presented.
Professor Beard uses the National Trust and the historic houses in our care as a gateway to speak on wider debates around history, heritage and ownership, and to shed a light on what the past says about society and the wider world.
The histories, people and artefacts explored in this talk are drawn from a variety of the places in our care, including Dyrham Park in Gloucestershire, Wimpole in Cambridgeshire and The Children’s Country House at Sudbury in Derbyshire.
This lecture was recorded in front of a live audience on 19 March 2024 at The Royal Society, London, UK. We’re working in collaboration with Times Radio to bring history to everyone. Times Radio provides intelligent and thought-provoking live coverage of news, politics and culture. Together, through this series of annual lectures, respected voices and commentators lead us in reflecting on nature, beauty and history.

From Elizabeth II to Cleopatra, Real Royalty peels back the curtain to give a glimpse into the lives of some of the most influential families in the world, with new full length documentaries posted every week covering the monarchies of today and all throughout history.

The gardens surrounding Wightwick Manor, cared for by the National Trust, are influenced by the Arts and Crafts Movement, which started in Britain during the late 19th century. This means the garden design extends into the house, where visitors can see flowers such as roses used as motifs for interiors and artworks.
Watch this video to discover how politics has also left its mark on the gardens that are still enjoyed by visitors today. You’ll see architectural artefacts from the Houses of Parliament and a tree planted by Clement Richard Attlee, the Labour Prime Minster who served from 1945 to 1951.
You’ll also learn about the history of the estate and its planting schemes and find out more about what the National Trust is doing to make the gardens more accessible for visitors.
The National Trust protects and cares for places so people and nature can thrive. Everyone can get involved, everyone can make a difference. Nature, beauty, history. For everyone, for ever.

- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

SUMMARY
=======
The National Trust, formally the National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty, is a conservation organisation in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and the largest membership organisation in the United Kingdom.The trust describes itself as "a charity that works to preserve and protect historic places and spaces—for ever, for everyone". The trust was founded in 1895 and given statutory powers, starting with the National Trust Act 1907. Historically, the trust tended to focus on English country houses, which still make up the largest part of its holdings, but it also protects historic landscapes such as in the Lake District, historic urban properties, and nature reserves. In Scotland, there is an independent National Trust for Scotland. The Trust has special powers to prevent land being sold off or mortgaged, although this can be over-ridden by Parliament.The National Trust has been the beneficiary of many large donations and bequests. It owns over 350 heritage properties, which includes many historic houses and gardens, industrial monuments, and social history sites. Most of these are open to the public, usually for a charge. Others are leased, on terms that manage to preserve their character. The Trust is one of the largest landowners in the United Kingdom, owning over 247,000 hectares (610,000 acres; 2,470 km2; 950 sq mi) of land, including many characteristic sites of natural beauty, most of which are open to the public free of charge.The Trust, one of the largest UK charities financially, is funded by membership subscriptions, entrance fees, legacies, and revenue from gift shops and restaurants within its properties. It has been accused of focusing too much on country estates, and in recent years, the trust has sought to broaden its activities by acquiring historic properties such as former mills, early factories, workhouses, and the childhood homes of Paul McCartney and John Lennon.In 2015, the trust undertook a governance review to mark the 10th anniversary of the current governance structure. The review led to the downsizing of the council and limitation of tenure to two terms.

Van 11 oktober 2018 tot en met 6 januari 2019 organiseert museum het Mauritshuis een bijzondere tentoonstelling rond zeventiende-eeuwse Hollandse schilderijen uit Britse landhuizen van de National Trust. In deze aflevering wordt Upton House behandeld.
11 October 2018 – 6 January 2019 - English country houses have traditionally been the home to Dutch Golden Age masters. Most of these paintings were acquired in the eighteenth century, the heyday of the English country house. Although over time many owners were forced to sell works to raise funds, there are still many extraordinary paintings to be found in country houses today.

Following Government guidance, from 19 July we're lifting social distancing rules and other Covid restrictions at the places we care for in England. We're also removing the booking system at many houses and gardens in England, so you can go back to enjoying spontaneous days out.
You'll find more details, and information about visiting places in Wales and Northern Ireland, on our website: https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/features/visiting-and-booking-information

Across the world, Britain is famed for its idyllic countryside – an incredibly diverse landscape of natural beauty, farmland and settlements.

Britain’s Treasures from the Air takes a spectacular look at how the National Trust has pursued its simple mission to preserve Britain's most valued places, 'for ever, for everyone.' From its humble beginnings over a century ago, it's now a national institution and one of Britain's biggest landowners with properties ranging from vast areas of countryside and coastline, to churches and even entire villages!
Beautifully filmed from the air, the programme takes the viewer across England, Wales and Northern Ireland to witness the wealth of natural beauty and heritage that are currently in the care of The National Trust.
