Antiques Roadshow

Castle Ward 1 (42x9)

Air date: Oct 27, 2019

The Roadshow comes from Castle Ward on the shores of Strangford Lough in Northern Ireland, where Fiona Bruce discovers that the architecture of this unusual house has something of a split personality. The visitors to Castle Ward produce an eclectic mix of finds. Irish treasures include a bronze sculpture known as The Leprechaun, a large table traditionally used for displaying the coffin at a wake and a picture of a fireman in action, brought along by Northern Ireland’s first female fire fighter. Treasures from further afield include a Tongan war club that narrowly escaped being chopped up for firewood and a 1960s TV set inspired by the first moon landing.
