Gladstone's Land's selling point as a National Trust property is its famous Renaissance painted ceilings. We are lucky to have some of the best-preserved examples of this uniquely Scottish Renaissance form of decorative art, and we have three of them. In this episode Thomas and Kate discuss the ceilings (and other things) with Miranda Evans, our in-house conservator, and also talk about the Spanish-language programme with Alicia Sancho.
