Committed to serving and service, surrounded by power and privilege, what was it like to be a housekeeper at the Judges Lodgings?
Uncover a new digital story, told with humour through illustration, animation, projection and sound to illuminate the story of the housekeepers. Step inside the Servants Hall to hear from those who served the judges, from Ellen Leighton's £50.00 annual salary to Peter Tomlinson and his prize-winning chickens. Ask yourself, who really belongs at the Lodgings?
