Flagship BBC1 programme Antiques Roadshow will hold a valuation day at Bowood House and Gardens near Calne on June 25.

Bowood celebrates the 40th anniversary of the house and gardens being opened to the public in 2015 and is one of 12 locations the BBC has announced for its annual roadshow.

A transmission date is yet to be set.Owner of the stately home Lord Lansdowne said: “It really was fantastic to receive the news just before Christmas that Bowood has been confirmed as one of the locations for the BBC’s Antiques Roadshow in 2015.

“We couldn’t be more delighted that the longstanding TV series has selected Bowood to be part of its schedule for next year.”

Bowood previously featured on the BBC when Sir Alan Sugar awarded a team from The Apprentice with archery, golf and English afternoon tea at the site.
