Heritage is the original creative industry, central to delivering economic growth and wellbeing for the nation, says @neilfmendoza of @HistoricEngland in a powerful opening to our afternoon at the @Historic_Houses AGM
Powerful keynote from @TristramHuntVA at the @Historic_Houses AGM, on the past, present and future of country house heritage
This is a key moment for the future of the country’s heritage and tourism sectors, as highlighted in today’s @FT on.ft.com/4emnQz1.
With thanks to the FT for highlighting some of our concerns about the impact of the proposed changes to IHT reliefs on heritage 👇🏼 on.ft.com/4emnQz1

Thank you @Historic_Houses @HistoricEngland @HolkhamEstate @violet_manners @HeritageXplore @WMGrowth @Jess4Lowestoft @SteveTheQuip for sharing your first hand experiences to boost tourism across the country @VisitEnglandBiz @VisitBritainBiz
Great to be in the House of Lords yesterday for the @VisitEngland panel discussion on heritage & tourism - the UK's rich heritage is the no 1 reason for inbound visitors to choose us a destination, so very pleased to see this being highlighted! #LoveHeritage🏰

"From a government that claims to be promoting economic growth and creating new conditions for investment, it can’t help but look like a series of profoundly anti-small-business measures" - our Director General @Ben_CowellDG on last week's Budget 👇 historichouses.org/news/this-budg…
I'll be speaking at the Embassy of the Czech Republic in London about the ups & downs of our rescue of Hopwood Hall Estate. Please join us on 12th November! Tickets/info: eventbrite.co.uk/e/heritage-sto…
Our thoughts on yesterday's Budget, and the impact on heritage below👇
It's going to be a busy week... Good to see @Historic_Houses quoted in this piece from @brushingboots "a poll by Historic Houses... found that 40pc of its members plan to claim BPR on their main property, and 83pc on adjacent businesses." telegraph.co.uk/money/tax/labo…
Brilliant to see students from @GoldsmithsUoL working on collections @CamdenPlace1717 The items all relate to Napoleon III, who lived here 1871-73. Pieces were curated by students for a smart new case just off the Hall. Glad that @Historic_Houses could support this project.
Very important #heritage thread here! 🧵
In all the current debate about what happens in next week’s Budget, the effect on heritage is rarely mentioned. Yet public access to heritage depends on a sound fiscal framework. Here’s why.

Wonderful @TempleNewsam , where I have just been. Great feeling of community ownership at the house. Beanbags too. I do so love a country house #beanbag...

A new book reminds us of the evening that Princess Diana danced with John Travolta at a Washington gala dinner during the 1985 royal tour. Next day, the royal couple attended the 'Treasure Houses of Britain' exhibition at the National Gallery of Art. spectator.co.uk/article/from-s…
