Fine architecture and fascinating families in the great residences of what is still countryside in London today, coupled with the splendid survival of the designers’ best work in the heart of London.
HAM HOUSE - LECTURE
Ham House, Richmond, with its restored gardens, is the best of London’s 17th c. country houses. First built by Thomas Vavassour in 1610, it is a model of gracious
living. There is also a rich family story centering on Elizabeth, Lady Dysart, a Royalist who continued to live in the house in Cromwell’s interregnum, and her second marriage to Lord Lauderdale, one of the five members of Charles II’s Cabal. Architecture, landscape, decor and family life will be interwoven in this lecture.
