Seventy years ago, a government-appointed committee published a report into the future of Britain’s country house heritage. The report is not as well known as the other achievements of the 1945-51 Labour government, such as the creation of the National Health Service or the formation of National Parks. Yet the findings of the report were to have a profound influence on the policies of successive postwar governments towards the conservation of the country’s most significant buildings, landscapes and collections.
For Easton Walled Gardens, in Lincolnshire, the report perhaps came a little too late, with the destruction of Easton Hall in 1951. However, without the report we may have lost many more irreplaceable cultural assets.
