- Welcome back to another episode at Mapperton! A lot of you have been asking for a tour of the Tudor parts of the House, so here it is. We marvel at the wonderful pendulum ceiling in The Great Chamber, dating back to the 16th Century, and find out about what happened to the Montagu family home, Hinchingbrooke House, in the 1950s.

I am so proud of you as an American that you embrace and learn the history of your husband's ancestors.
They’re her children’s ancestors, one of the reasons I did my Ancestry DNA, watching this because I have Montagu s in my ancestry. Henry 11 one of my great grandfathers
@@rolo4945 oh gosh yes more impactful when u think of it like that
She is a great example of people who married into the aristocracy and embrace their lifestyles and history with graceful passion!
This was great- Henry VI is not Tudor unfortunately.... Henry VII begins the Tudor period in 1485 with the Battle of Bosworth. Also Elizabeth I can also be considered 'Tudor' since she is Henry VIII's daughter- so the Tudor period can technically be 1485-1603. These ceilings are so gorgeous and so thankful you shared! Looks like similar molding in the Great Chamber to the Chapel Royal at Hampton Court Palace.
How wonderful to learn about the history of Mapperton and Hinchingbrooke. I loved Julie's dress as well :)
Thank you so much and hope to see you here again on Sunday!
Julie, it’s very exciting to hear you now sound so knowledgeable of so much English history, major historical events, & the impact these events & time have had on your husband’s family & ancestors! Plus, your presentation style is very casual, friendly, & enjoyable!!
I’m excited to have just recently discovered your channel! Best Wishes to you & your family regarding this channel & the future of your beautiful Manor home!!
Thank you so much!
You crack me up.
All this ornate detail, painstakingly described and ended with a wonderful natural Julie statement:
"It's a wrap!"....as always, Unexpectedly,she gave me a great laugh!!!
THIS is absolutley my Cuppa Tea. Enjoying this while Toronto is in yet ANOTHER month total Lockdown. Oh, to be in England!!! What a beautiful home. Just WOW!!!! Thanks so much for sharing your enthusiasm for History with the rest of Us!!! 🇨🇦👑🇬🇧 and... yes, You look amazing too.. very pretty dress.
As a child I fell in love with tudor history and tudor architecture, thanks to a wonderful history teacher I had. Wonderful to see the non renovated parts of the house. The ceilings are simply breath taking.
The Tudor ceilings are beautiful!!
Being an American descendent of the British Montagu family, this tour has been a gem for me. Thank you!
What I love about this house is despite the early antiques, and important art works, the house isnt pretencious . Its comfortably adorned with well worn and well loved pieces. Much more homey than museums. Love it!
Love this so much. When you spoke about your family motto it choked me up. The last year has indeed had many ship wrecks.
Julie is wonderful. Wasn't sure what I thought of this American girl who had "married into the British aristocracy" at first, but I have totally fallen in love with her now. I love her humanity and her perseverance.
Great video, and what amazes me the most is your ability to explain so many things of history and building without any notes, but still keeping great tempo and structure. Really great!
Glad you enjoyed it
Please continue talking! It’s amazing, thank you!
Gorgeous dress Julie! Loved this tour.
I am so envious of your life. From one American to another, excellent job! I love your channel.
When I saw the beautiful ceiling, it immediately reminded me of the one at Hampton Court! Didn't realise they are so rare, what a treasure you have there!
So when can we get to see Hinchingbrooke, Julie? I can’t wait, so excited😍
Great episode i love love those ceilings how special are they ❤
So sad that lots of families lost their homes and England lost such historic buildings we can only be thankful for those that were saved ! Thanks for sharing ❤
Hearing the history is so wonderful! Love it! I only wish your camera person would have slowed down and allowed us to really take in the ceiling and its details. The round paintings of the other house are so gorgeous and the story is so interesting.
From a fellow American-Henry VI was not a Tudor. The Tudor era began with Henry VII in 1485, went through Henry VIII, Edward, Mary, and finished with Elizabeth’s death in 1603. It’s a lot and can be confusing! Love England and my visits to Tudor era houses!
I love your dress! Blue with beautiful floral design. Awesome Tudor era. Ceilings! Wow!
Wonderful tour! Love your enthusiasm and pride in your family’s amazing history. Love it!
Wonderful work as always. God bless you and all our aristocrats and royals around the world!
I LOVE EACH OF ALL THE ROOMS, HISTORY, AND BACK STORY'S! YOU ARE THE BEST TEACHER!
Thanks Julie! I enjoyed this episode! Nice dress! You look so elegant all dressed up while taking us on this tour.
Julie, it's living history!! Magical!!

Hello how are you doing 😊😊😊☺️👋
Fantastic tour! Being a bit of a horology amateur, I was very taken by that amazing clock on the wall behind you when you were standing between the Great Chamber and the stairway.
During free time I enjoy immersing myself into this home ❤️❤️❤️ thank you 🙏🏼
Congratulations. Your enthusiasm and passion for your outstanding Castle is really catching.
Other you tubers will film these mansions, Castles that are still standing it breaks my heart to see now and the places abandoned. I could not imagine what it would of been like during the World Wars to come back home and see the devastation the to tear down. Oh my goodness! Loving your videos and history of your family etc. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for the tour! It is a special place and the history was fantastic!
Stunning! It's amazing how much history, etc you've learned and we can see how much you really enjoy it! I love the architecture, pictures and history!
This is so interesting! I love that you know so much about your own heritage and history. Fantastic!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I really enjoyed this. What a wonderful insight into the history of your home. I have subscribed, so I'm looking forward to learning more. And I think your dress is divine. Cheers from Adelaide. 😊
Julie you do such a wonderful job and take such great care of this magnificent home. It looks amazing.💕
Thank you so much!
Great job reviewing history. It took me back to my Life in the UK test days:) Beautiful home & lovely tour.
Thank you very much!
Lovely tour and explanation for this American. Thank you!
Great Chambers now a days are called "Man Caves", and they're not nearly as elegant as this! Haha! Absolutely stunning!
Love the architecture and hearing the history of your family. You provide a lovely and intricate description of British aristocracy. Thank you so much!
I enjoyed the family & house history. I watched everything on your show on the Smithsonian Channel. I hope it comes back with more episodes.
I think you are so delightful. Your an adorable couple as well. I do love the content you cover in all your vlogs.
Just relax when you speak, don't be frazzled and nervous we all love you♡
your beautiful and very talented ... I cant imagine the amount of information you have inside and try to get it out in 30 minutes for youtube.
You are teaching us so many wonderful facts
thank you!
Hi Julie. beautiful home...
Thank you!
One of my ancestral relatives Thomas Abel was executed at the tower of London by King Henry VIII ( a Tudor ). I always love seeing Tudor period items and architecture. Beautiful video.
i love your enthusiasm!
I’m obsessed with your show and love how you bring history to life! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
I could listen to this for hours!
This is a very amazing ceiling!!!
Thanks for the wonderful tour, loved everything! Janice from Arkansas USA
You are so welcome!
All that lovely stair banister painted white!! Ooerr
Amazing history thank you 🙏 for the vlog Julie !
You're so welcome, glad you could join us!
Such a treat to learn about this wonderful home
lovely dress and glad I happened upon your posts
This was a magnificent experience 👏 thank you.
You're welcome!
Thanks look forward to more interesting information on the history of two great homes
These grand old houses are ornaments in themselves, the cleaning , especially the dusting would need to be done daily by a dedicated cleaner.. an ornament house where these living spaces are more museum than for living, i guess it would be a much easier task for the cleaner..incidentally the Pendulum ceiling and geometric shapes would have required artisans to carve and plaster.. and only the Royals seem to have used this elegant ornament work, it was perfected in the tudor, period, this is something the Roman elites used as well.. the pendulums must have had some spiritual purpose to them, in my opinion, the grand fire place has a ornament in front what was the purpose of this piece.. thanks for the tour
I love that 4 poster……with the canopy.
Love the Tudor period! Great segment and lovely dress.
Thank you Clement Attlee.
You certainly have an interesting life story!! And you are going to add more in Italy!!
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing.
Hello Julie, lovely to catch up with you. The spaces in the house and windows are gorgeous, so’s your dress and your interesting talk. I’m an artist originally from England, and am very keen to know more about the paintings. I love slow pans of them in close up, to see the quality of the work and how they are made, and the stories behind the portraits and artists. Thank you very much, your videos have been a wonderful distraction from the pandemic and a recent hurricane we had near Houston. Kind regards, Hazel.
Thank you Hazel for your kind comment. Please keep coming back here every Sunday for more! xx
Thank you. So much knowledge about your History. Informative and interesting
This may be TOTALLY SHALLOW in the midst of everyone’s glorious response to the house….
But YOUR SHOES!
i’ve seen you wear these fabulous red shoes in several episodes. Please tell us the brand and style so we can all get a pair and look like you! 😘
I can barely keep up with a 2 bedroom apartment. I cannot imagine having charge of such a grand estate. It is gorgeous though and very romantic.
You are so lucky to live in such an amazing house with all that history. So amazing. I just think the imagination runs wild with all the people and events those walls have seen. Have you ever found any never before found treasures from the past?
Thank you so much!
Woah woah woah...from THE Cromwell family???
Thank you, it was very interesting!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful.
Henry VII was the first of the Tudor Kings. Henry VI was from the Plantagenet dynasty.
Im new to you channel
I have really enjoyed watching Im an Illinois girl too! My family once lived in Sugar Grove and then to Aurora! Your story is amazing. Thank you
Beautiful house. Love the ceiling and furniture. Must be sure all to live there.
"Otium cum dignitate" = "Leisure with dignity." After listening to your explanation, I can see why you would translate it as "after so many shipwrecks, finally a harbour," but I would go with "our leisure is been dignified by the amount of effort we had to put into earning it". The emphasis is, I think, more on the idea of being worthy of people's respect even when, at present, one is not actively involved in great state matters/wars because one has indeed already been in the past and quite successfully so. Hence the idea of "well-deserved leisure." Love your home, your dress and your shoes, BTW!
I love your house!! I love the history of Britain and the monarchy, however Henry VI was a Plantagenet. Henry Tudor was Henry VII who was coronated in 1485. You did get the Tudor date right!! With the coronation of Henry VII, this not only brought an end to the War of the Roses (aka Cousin's War), but also brought us the Tudor Rose which was both white (York rose color) and red (Lancaster rose color). Henry VII's wife was Elizabeth of York, daughter of Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville. Henry VII and Elizabeth of York were Henry VIII's parents. Sorry, I am an American obsessed with the British monarchy :-)
I forgot to add that your dress is amazing! I'm rewatching some of the videos!
Yay! Thank you!
@@AmericanViscountess You're welcome 🤗! I'm looking forward to seeing the Athelhampton episode in about 12 hours from now!!!! 😊! Thank you Julie so much and your team for filming this!
Totally interesting! Thank you!
This episode was so informative and interesting, love the talking, talking, talking 😂
GREAT 👍 !!!
NOT SEEN THIS VIDEO.
THANKS 👍😊.
LADY MONTAGUE.
FROM UK 🇬🇧.
Fascinating video series. Was the Tudor ceiling painted? I understand that in the era, many were brightly coloured. Grand salon for the Lord= original " man cave"!?🤣 Thank you for this series. My great- grandparents left aristocratic life in the Cotswolds to move to Canada ( family disagreed with my gg marrying a Frenchwoman, a snobbish view in that era. Sounds like the Sandwich family was more open minded). As I trace my family tree, I found your channel- what a treat! One day, I shall come visit you and look forward to the tour. Cheers 💓
Thank you for watching!!!
I could be wrong. However, it is my understanding that a big factor in why so many grand homes went into despair is also because of material shortages.
There was so much destruction because of the war. (Many were taken over for military/hospital usage. Therefore altered & damaged). Materials and supplies were not only very expensive but very hard to come by. That they were reserved & rationed for more important government types of structures. Owners of the great houses gave up and just either had them destroyed or abandoned them. Many of the people in the trades were also killed during the war so finding builders and craftsmen was also a huge issue.
My little artist heart would love to know who painted the portrait of the 4th Earl. It's lovely. I'm swooning over the fabric!
Very interesting to see this Tudor architecture. Coming from Chicago did you ever see the Thorne room miniatures at the Art Institute of Chicago - they have a great Tudor miniature interior?
Are those Tudor Roses on the ceiling as well? Love your videos, very interesting stuff. Thank you for sharing .
Love this! Love the history!
Gorgeous. Simply stunning. Can you speak about the small hutch behind you at 10:37? I adore it. Again, thank you for sharing all of this with us. For every beautiful thing there, I'm guessing there are hours and days and weeks of work that you actually put in yourself. The work is amazing and the finished product/area is stunning.
Thank you, I will
That was so interesting. I want to see every episode. Thank you so much 😊
I understand your point bout Tudor houses the first thing you have to look at if you are looking for a Tudor house is it's ceiling It's beautiful and distinctive All carved up beautiful
What do these " lozingers" in the Montagu Crest look like up close, please? Looking forward to seeing them. Thank you for such wonderful enthusiasm, Julie, sharing all these great historic facts. You make history very enjoyable!💓 This is Joanne from Chicago. 🤗
Fantastic dress!
Thank you for sharing.
You’re welcome!
This Man Cave was made for the Lord of the House? Is this where he ate his Sandwich? Fancy!
Alice Montagu (my 15 great grandmother)born in Salisbury ,married into the Neville family of Raby Castle, love these channels
Fascinating! So glad you're enjoying our videos 🥰
Excellent stuff Julie! But, I have to just say, Tudors were Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I. Henry VI was the last Lancastrian in the War of the Roses, prior to the Tudor era.
Mapperton is so lucky to have you!
As an English history lover, I enjoy your CZcams channel! I assume someone, by now, has told you that the first Earl of Sandwich was given his peerage by King Charles II, not King Edward II = )
Gosh LOVE your dress!!!!
I love your CZcams program. Keep more coming.
I recently made a comment about that ceiling and seeing some of them painted I didn't realize there were that few I'm sure I seen ceiling sort of like that maybe there is a difference that I'm not getting but it is beautiful
