ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Hosted by Violet Manners — Viscountess Garnock (née Lady Violet Manners) — this series explores the lives of those shaped, influenced or quietly drawn towards heritage.
Some guests grew up inside historic houses, as Violet did.Some work behind the scenes preserving them.Others simply fell in love with old places and found that fascination shaping the course of their lives.
These are conversations about ambition, memory, risk, family and belonging — with heritage woven throughout.
Because heritage is never just about buildings.
It is about the people drawn to them, shaped by them, and sometimes changed because of them.
