This time on American Viscountess Julie Montagu, Viscountess Hinchingbrooke visits Deans Court – a tranquil country house in the centre of the Dorset market town of Wimborne. This is an historic home which continues to surprise and inspire. Once a medieval monastery, the building was transformed in the Georgian period. The Hanham family have lived here for 500 years since the time of the Tudor Kings and Queens. William and Ali Hanham give Julie a tour of the beautiful interiors - from the splendour of the Georgian period to the colourful brushwork of the 1930s. Julie discovers how buried treasures were unearthed from the Roman Period and hears of the extraordinary and sometimes heartbreaking history of previous generations.
