Lady Waterford Hall - People in the Paintings

Heritage Open Day: Step back in time with a visit to the Lady Waterford Hall. Discover why this Victorian ‘model’ village’s schoolroom is home to a series of astounding Pre-Raphaelite murals and hear the story of the 'People in the Paintings'. Originally commissioned by Louisa Anne, Marchioness of Waterford as a school for local children in 1860, she then spent 21 years completing her artistic masterpiece: the watercolour murals. These feature the faces of those who lived and worked on the Estate – the neighbours, tenants and children that Louisa knew and loved. Enjoy hearing the story of the people who feature in the murals told by the Ford & Etal Heritage Curator. The talk will last about 20 minutes.
