Zoom Lecture – Romantic Decline: Preserving Chastleton House

A rare gem of a Jacobean country house, Chastleton was built between 1607 and 1612 by the prosperous wool merchant, Walter Jones. It was owned by the same increasingly impoverished family until 1991. The house remained essentially unchanged for nearly 400 years as the interiors and contents gradually succumbed to the ravages of time. The talk will be given by Beverley Turner, Senior Collections and House Officer for the National Trust’s West Oxfordshire portfolio.
