<p>A reimagining of the life of an extraordinary 18th-century woman.</p><p>Eleanor Coade (1733–1821) was a British sculptor and businesswoman whose artificial stone was used by every leading architect of her day. <em> Coade stone </em>can still be found throughout London – from Bloomsbury to Buckingham Palace – across the UK, and around the world.</p><p>Eleanor wants to sculpt, but family bankruptcy forces her into work.
