Hear the story of Clouds Hill Cottage

Date:

The tiny Clouds Hill Cottage near Bovington is in the care of the National Trust and preserved as a memorial to T.E. Lawrence. It has been essentially ‘frozen in time’ in the mid-1930s.
Just like the BBC series A House Through Time, in this talk for the Dorset Archives Trust Martin Gething – a volunteer guide at Clouds Hill Cottage – will build up a picture of the families who all called Clouds Hill home over a period of more than a century.
The story of the cottage draws extensively on the archives at the Dorset History Centre, in particular the Estate Papers of the Framptons of Moreton together with other historical sources.
Come 14th December at 6.45pm for a 7pm start and enjoy some nibbles and a glass of wine or a soft drink, tickets £12.
