Dual exhibition at the V&A to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Destruction of the Country House exhibition.

13 – 21 Sept 2014
London

This exhibition led to the founding of SAVE Britain’s Heritage in the following year. Since then SAVE has been directly and indirectly involved with saving a large number of country houses throughout the country.

To celebrate this SAVE is helping mount a dual exhibition at the V&A during the London Design Festival (September 13 – 21) which will continue at the museum until October 27th. The two exhibits have been sponsored by Gallery Sienna – friends and supporters of SAVE – and will be accompanied by a series of events.

The exhibits at the V&A comprise a display by Marcus Binney, SAVE’s Executive President, entitled ‘Country House, Past, Present and Future’ – a documentary on both lost and saved country houses.
