Insights
Sandra Lawrence says: “Even after a lifetime’s obsession with Ellen Willmott I had no idea just how complex, exciting – and brave – her story would turn out to be. Scrambling through those cellars, clad in boiler suit, head torch, mask and gloves, piecing together the truth from rotting fragments, has been the most exciting time of my life.”
