#OTD in 1758 the Earl of Coventry paid £53:18:1 to James Lovell for Carpentary work at Croome. £3:11:10 was deducted for 'over charge', the bill was examined by Lancelot Brown.
Today I supervised Phyl hoovering a door believed to have come from @NTCroome that has spent the last 30 odd years in somebodies garage.

Sophia Pitches (1761-1779), the younger sister of the Countess of Coventry, died of poisoning from the lead and mercury in her makeup. A doctor thought she was suffering from unrequited love for the local curate, but another confirmed it was poisoning and nothing could be done.
Today I supervised my team @NTCroome weeding and sweeping the South stairs. It*s hard work for a little bear.
Hard work @NTCroome the crates are all unpacked but I can't show you what was in them it's a secret.
Busy week this week in the court @NTCroome . Had to supervise a delivery of crates.
