Lunchtime Talk: Women of Winterbourne

Winterbourne was built at a time of great change for women. Opportunities were opening, and campaigns for women’s rights were gaining momentum.

In this talk, Winterbourne Curator Henrietta Lockhart will draw upon archival sources to explore some contrasting lives, including Margaret Nettlefold and her daughter Evie, the family nurse Janet King, and the 14-year-old girls who washed the dishes.

The talk will take place in the Winterbourne Centre for Horticulture.

All courses, workshops and events at Winterbourne House & Garden are non-refundable unless cancelled by Winterbourne. All tickets are subject to a booking fee of up to £2.50.
