Thursday 22 October 10.30amA Servant’s Life
One and a half million British people worked as servants at the beginning of the Edwardian era, which means one in four people was employed as a domestic servant, and most were women. How did life as a domestic servant compare to other available professions during this era, and how did Lauriston servants fare beside those working elsewhere?
Tracy Robertson is Steward of Lauriston Castle and is researching lots of different histories and stories about the house and its former residents.
