The Treasure on the Wall | Heritage Home Decor
Sep 22, 2022, 02:00 AM
If historic houses are the treasure boxes that keep the jewels within them safe, what happens when the box starts to fall apart?
Find out how one precious item of home decor was left hanging when the walls around it crumbled, until conservators devised a rescue plan.
Curator James Grasby heads to North Wales and to a warm welcome to Wrexham to visit Erddig, a home he once cared for to find out how the team are caring for this rare artefact.
