Cliveden garden party celebrates Nancy Astor's birthday

A glamorous garden party at Cliveden will mark the birthday of one of Britain's most illustrious women. Nancy Astor Day, taking place today, will remember Britain's first female MP, who owned the historic estate in Taplow with husband Waldorf Astor in the early 20th century. She was born on May 19, 1879. The National Trust attraction will be transformed with colourful bunting, vintage cars lining the Grand Avenue, a traditional Punch and Judy show, and live jazz music.
