In 2018 we're celebrating the life and achievements of Fanny Boscawen, the first ‘Lady of the House’. Fanny was a founding member of the Bluestocking Society, notable for giving women a cultural standing in a time where to be an educated female was frowned upon. We’re embarking on a series of events at the home of this pioneering woman.
