Beschreibung

Newman, now in her 90s tells of her life as a maid to Lady Coventry at the stately home of Croome Court in the 1930s. She reveals what is was like living and working in an 18th century Neo-Palladian mansion surrounded by parkland landscaped by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown. With appeal to all fans of "Downton Abbey".
