Album Info:

london uk Holly Village was built in 1865 by a remarkable, but now little- known philanthropist, Baroness Burdett-Coutts, who inherited the Coutts banking fortune from her grandfather's second wife, but who never forgot her own humble origins. In her time, Angela Burdett- Coutts was known as the "queen of the poor", building schools at her own expense - such as the Burdett-Coutts primary school in Westminster. She was also a great friend of Charles Dickens, with whom she collaborated on establishing a home for fallen women in Shepherd's Bush.
