Channel: Gardens at Mouse Castle
Date: 2021-02-04

Hello, from Ed and H! 
How are you? 
This is just us, as we are at lunchtime at Mouse Castle, between dog walks and gardening, thinking about our connection this historic house and the luck that brought us together. Sending you all love, at this difficult time, H and Ed xxx 

Filmed on 4 Nov 2020. Our trailer, intro and outro music today is "Coming of Age" from the Graduation Day template.  It seemed appropriate, considering the Mouse Castle connection to the Suffragette campaign for Women to Vote on the same basis as Men, which was partially achieved in 1918 and fully achieved in 1928. Thank you to suffragette Georgina Brackenbury, her mother Hilda and her sister Marie, who all lived at Mouse Castle,  They lent this house to the suffragette campaign to be used as the W.S.P.U. Headquarters in 1914 and held suffragette meetings here throughout the campaign. And to suffragette Annie Kenney who stayed here many times and whose archive links Ed and H, a hundred years later!

Hermione and Ed are finding out about the history of Mouse Castle in Notting Hill, London which became famous a hundred years ago for its connections with the Suffragette campaign to give women the Vote. This video is to give an idea of who we are as writer and artist, what we do as research and dog-walking and our enthusiasm for all things gardening and art related.
