How I found potential lost works of the great British painter William Hogarth – new research

On the banks of River Kennett, Wiltshire, sits an Elizabethan country house. You might know Littlecote if you enjoy fly fishing or, if you’re interested in civil war re-enactments – it possesses a unique Cromwellian Chapel and an outstanding Roundhead armoury. Above all, however, Littlecote is known for the many mysteries that shroud it: colourful ghost sightings, a cursed elm tree, tales of tragedies and many puzzling local legends inflect its knotty history. One such legend, that of Littlecote’s Dutch parlour, is widely considered true.

The Duchess Countess review: Catherine Ostler does a good job

Rating: In 1776, Elizabeth Chudleigh, former royal lady-in-waiting and dedicated party girl, found herself fighting for her freedom and reputation in front of the House of Lords.  She had been summoned to defend herself against the charge of bigamy. Dressed for drama, and modelling her look on that of the tragic Mary Queen of Scots two centuries earlier, ‘the Duchess Countess’ as she was popularly known, played the role of tragic heroine to perfection.  Tickets for the court went on sale, and the newspapers devoted more column inches to the scandal than to the on-going American war of independence.
