Publisher's Synopsis
Both celebratory and reflective, this captivating guide sheds light on the LGBTQ heritage of many National Trust people and places. From Smallhythe, Monk's House and Nymans in the South East, to Kingston Lacy in the South West and Ickworth in East Anglia, the Trust is exploring places that have been shaped by the sexuality of their inhabitants. This guide brings to light turbulent stories of exile and tragedy, tales of loving relationships and family, and sometimes challenging histories of public front and private expression.
