Three ceilings - Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery

Update: 2020-05-13

Description

While the previous episode reminded listeners to look down when visiting historic houses, in a pleasing symmetry, this episode reminds them to look up. Podcast host Ploy Radford talks to Clare Gough, Director at Pitzhanger Museum & Gallery, about three beautiful ceilings in the building, touching on subjects of family fallouts, the use of light in architecture and clever restoration tricks along the way.

You can view pictures of the ceilings on PloyRadford.com.
