Talk on Treasure House in Petworth

Petworth House has been collecting treasures for over 500 years.

Who was the Wizard Earl? How did the 3rd Earl spend his time. This talk will educate and entertain you.

Frances Farrer-Brown was born and brought up on a mixed farm. Rural affairs, the countryside, gardens, history and literature have always been an abiding interest.
