WORLD’S FIRST SOLAR POWERED CASTLE | How They Did It | Athelhampton

Athelhampton House in Dorset is the focus of this NEW episode of historic house visits here on the American Viscountess channel. Living in and maintaining these homes is both a wonderful privilege and an enormous challenge. And one of the greatest tasks every house owner faces is heating a centuries old building in a sustainable and economical way. Giles Keating at Athelhampton has faced this challenge in a totally pioneering and ingenious way!
Join me as I visit Athelhampton House - the first solar powered Manor House in England.
