One Foot in the Past S03 E06 Episode 6

This week, Penelope Keith visits Folly Farm in Berkshire, which represents two different phases in the working partnership of architect Sir Edwin Lutyens and garden designer Gertrude Jekyll. In 1906, the duo created the Elizabethan look, with two cottage courtyard gardens. But by 1912 they were exploring larger-scale formality in the sunken rose garden. Also, do ordinary people's views count for anything when it comes to listing a building? Nuneaton might not be the heritage capital of the country but, as Kirsty Wark reports, local people were determined to save the biggest structure on their horizon when it came under threat. Plus a visit to the Walpole Bay Hotel in Cliftonville, Kent, a building which embodies the heyday of the British seaside holiday.
