About Me - Joy
As a touring actor, I've had the privilege of staying in other people's houses all over the country.
Of course, not everyone has access to the same historical resources or the time to devote to research.
I've become passionate about the history of private residences and the secret lives of their occupants. Wherever I went, I left the digs hosts I stayed with a bundle of research.
After scouring the history of places I've lived (London, North Wales, Berkshire and now Chepstow) it would be a joy to share my research with you.
Let us know the address you're interested in researching and we'll get back to you straight away with a FREE initial consultation.
