Henry Moore

In this edition of People and Places we meet Mary Moore, daughter of the renowned British artist and sculptor, Henry Moore, who died in 1986.

We meet Mary at Hoglands, the house where Henry Moore and his family lived for many years. Hoglands has recently opened to the public for the first time.

Mary shares some of her memories of her parents with us, and we highlight lots of language that you can use to describe people.

And you can find out more about the language of this week's programme, below.
