Through their familial roles and networks, and as landowners in their own right, heiresses, cultural patrons, domestic servants, tenants and agricultural labourers, women were central to the functioning of estates and country houses. They often exerted profound influences on the identities and fortunes of individual estates, and could play a significant role in shaping the nature of interactions between the country house, local communities and wider aspects of society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Members thoroughly enjoyed Heddwen\u2019s lively presentation, commenting on how remarkable it was that so many women played such a central role in the development of this, and many other, estates.
