Ned Iveagh and Joanne Ooi toasting the success of this past weekend’s Stories of Guinness festival at Elveden Hall with what else — a pint of Guinness! The talks were rammed; the speakers were gripping and, in the case of Adrian Tinniswood, hilarious; every visitor was gob-smacked by the staggering architecture of the Marble Hall and the spectacular art by . Not that this was all the doing of EA Festival alone of course. The warm hospitality and delicious food by the Guinness Arms and nigh-perfect weather completed the day and made it one of our best festivals EVER!

Finally, thank you to the sponsors of Stories of Guinness — Sworders and Abels — whose generous support made the festival possible.

Speakers pictured in this album are:
Ben Cowell of Historic Houses on stage with Adrian Tinniswood
Eleanor Doughty discussing the challenges of stately home inheritance with Catherine Bailey and Anna Hope.
Clare Presland singing musical theatre favourites in the Marble Hall.
