A Space I Love S2 – Queen Charlotte's Drawing Room with Polly Putnam

  This week marks the penultimate episode in our six-part mini-series on special places in our palaces. We’re following Curator Polly Putnam into Queen Charlotte’s Drawing Room in Kew Palace, the home of the Royal Family during the illnesses of George III.  This small and domestic-feeling room holds a lot of sadness from the past, but from this Polly is able to reflect on finding joy in the meaning of home.  If you’d like to find out more on visiting Kew Palace go to: https://www.hrp.org.uk/kew-palace/visit  To learn more about the lives of Queen Charlotte and George III go to: https://www.hrp.org.uk/kew-palace/history-and-stories
