In this episode of American Countess, Julie Montagu visits the magnificent Carlton Towers, a grand Gothic Revival house in North Yorkshire steeped in history and transformation. Originally built as Carlton Hall in 1614 and later remodelled in the 19th century by Edward Welby Pugin, this Grade I listed house stands as a testament to centuries of architectural splendour and family legacy.
Julie sits down with Lord and Lady Fitzalan Howard to explore their journey of restoring and revitalising Carlton Towers, the challenges and rewards of preserving such a historic estate, and their vision for its future. This engaging conversation offers a rare glimpse into the life of modern custodians working to ensure that Carlton Towers remains a vibrant, living part of Britain’s heritage.
