Deep Dive On: Orangeries
Listen now
Description
Well, you stitched her up again didn't you there listeners? You voted, we researched, and after our big trip to Wollaton Hall you chose orangeries for Laura to research and tell Will about. She's done her best BUT, just as you would expect if you were packing oranges to send to another country, there will be padding. Laura Lexx tells Will Duggan all about orangeries: their history, a few cool ones, and then, for just for patrons only: Versailles!
