ASHLAND — The Ashland Historical Society will present "The Land of Lucknow, From Ossipee Mountain Park to Castle in the Clouds" by Robin Sherman at 7 p.m. on Thursday, July 18, in the Booster Clubhouse in Ashland.
Sherman, the curator and director of preservation at Castle in the Clouds, will give an illustrated talk on the history of the Moultonboro country estate. Originally named Lucknow, the stone mansion, built in 1913-14 for millionaire Thomas Gl Plant, sits on an outcrop of the Ossipee Mountain Range, where it commands a grand view over Lake Winnipesaukee. It is one of a handful of grand estates in New Hampshire that are now open to the public.
