We did it with YOUR help! The moment has arrived to unveil our 300 year old Lead Eagles!
With an extraordinary variety of castles, manors, and stately homes available, this truly is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - don't let it slip away! Mention "Julie" when booking for £1,000 off any stay of 5 nights or longer. Please click the link here storiedcollection.com to discover and book the historic house of your dreams.
The Gilded Age American Heiress Exhibition opened to the public here at Mapperton on the 5th May. However, if you can’t make it in person you can buy a ticket (3 cups of coffee) for a virtual hour long tour with me, and support this ongoing project over at www.buymeacoffee.com/juliejmo...
ROUND-BREAKING AI BRINGS HISTORY TO LIFE - NEW EXHIBITION UNVEILS THE UNTOLD STORY OF A GILDED AGE AMERICAN HEIRESS.
A new exhibition offers a glimpse into the captivating world of Alberta Sturges Montagu, the 9th Countess of Sandwich, and an American Heiress from the renowned era known as The Gilded Age.
Curated by Mapperton’s very own American Viscountess, Julie Montagu, the "American Heiress" collection is comprised of more than 10,000 previously unseen letters exchanged between Alberta (Sturges) Montagu and her family, as well as the peerage at large.
Dating from 1888 to 1951, these letters constitute the largest unpublished private collection of correspondence from the period. They offer a remarkable glimpse into the life of a "dollar bride" during the Gilded Age, shedding light on both triumphs and struggles.
The exhibition takes innovation to the next level by introducing Alberta AI, a ground-breaking creation that brings her story to life like never before.
“With the aid of cutting-edge AI technology, we've resurrected Alberta's voice, allowing her to answer visitors’ burning questions about her remarkable journey,” says Julie Montagu, Viscountess Hinchingbrooke.

To me, it is so important to keep these homes as well as other really old places up. In the U S old majestic homes are not being taken care of as well as they should be. These places are part of history and for many of us a shared heritage. Our families can be traced back to several of the grand homes and castles in Europe. I want them there for my Granddaughters to see in the future. You are doing a great service in making others aware that it restorations need to be done and that several need to get involved in funding the process.

Hi Julie and Luke, "AMAZING" the eagles have come home. They look so beautiful. Thank you everybody who was able to donate and make this possible. I am so happy for you and for Mapperton. Love from N.Y.

Julie and Luke, I was getting all emotional watching this, so no need to apologize! My tears were almost falling and there was the HUGE lump in my throat as you were talking. Those brilliant big birds are BACK! WELL DONE, ALL! The craftsmen, the scaffolding staff, the transporters to get them home safely, and most importantly, the generous donors who helped pay for this enormous task of repair! Thank you all for getting those eagles back on their perches, guarding the house and greeting the visitors! Simply magnificent!

@Burbankelly Ай бұрын

Awww…the eagle unveiling made me tear up! Then it made me laugh my guts out! The music was perfection! 😂😂😂 The bird show you provided your guests at the end was top notch! Wow!

How beautiful the front of the house looks with all the flowering vines in bloom! Plant more! Spring is definitely Mapperton season! They are just beautiful! eagles! The unveiling of Luke was hilarious! Fantastic craftsmanship and what a great team effort to get Flutter and Swoop back up! Glad you took down those old battered wooden gates. I think cast iron gates would be beautiful in future, if you decide to replace them.

This was so funny--the comment about being afraid most of all about gravity and the slight delay with unveiling the eagles. I'm so happy they have been beautifully restored. Thank you to all who contributed and thank you Julie and Luke for being willing to ask people for help rather than letting this beautiful piece of history fall to ruin.

Found it interesting that the entrance to Mapperton has eagles and Julie was born in America and the symbol of America is the eagle. Great job with restoration of the eagles. Enjoying watching the history of the place and the restoration of the property.

I am just now watching this as well as attempting to get back into the roll of life after surgery. Tears, actual tears of joy seeing these brilliant Eagles back to their majestic perches. Oh how I would have cherished each second of being there to see the unavailing and to be standing among others there. I am full of pride to see not only my name on the plaque but all the other names as well.
