Season: 3 Episode: 17

Stourhead Estate has a breathtaking 18th century landscape garden with lakeside walks, grottoes and classical temples. It also has a tragic history.

The previous manor house that stood on these grounds was the backdrop to a heinous crime powered by vengeance and greed when Charles, the 8th Baron Stourton demands what he feels is his.
