In the heart of Greenwich stands a church hemmed in by shops and the bustle of tourists off to see the Cutty Sark, or the Painted Hall perhaps. A church built on the site of a saint’s murder in 1012, played in by the famous Tudor composer, Thomas Tallis, and that saved the lives of its community sheltering in its crypt during the Blitz. In short, a church with many stories to tell… including the lives of the 18th century women who sat on its newly installed pews. Especially for women's history month the fabulous team at St Alfege are sharing a taster of some of these stories with us here.

Bath – famous for its Roman spa, and Regency balls. Just outside this, oh so English, town though, is a museum set in acres of stunning gardens, dedicated to America. It was the dream of one transatlantic couple who were interested in decorative arts and wanted to showcase the work of early Europeans in America. Here the museum team introduce their story and the amazing collection you can visit today.
