About this Event

This talk looks at the scandalous living of some of the ‘old’ landed gentry but also includes some stories drawn from the county’s ‘nouveaux riche’ like Robey of Lincoln. Find out about the King George IV’s rather mature mistress, the scandalous adulterer from Belton and the desperate or corrupt acquisition of money!
