Antiques Roadshow is to be filmed at a Kent country estate and mansion this summer.

Specialists will be on hand at Belmont House, outside Faversham, to offer free advice and valuations to visitors who can bring along family heirlooms, household treasures and car boot sale bargains.

Anyone who is curious to learn the value of some of their possessions is encouraged to book a spot for the filming day.

Cameras for the ever-popular BBC show will be rolling at the estate on Tuesday, August 23.

It will be the first time Antiques Roadshow has visited Belmont House.

Owned by the Harris family, the 3,000-acre estate in Throwley is home to England's largest private collection of clocks.

More than 340 timepieces are on show at the 18th century house, which is dubbed "one of Kent's hidden gems".

The filming day is a ticketed event, and applications must be made in advance.

Organisers are limiting the number of people who can attend, with morning and afternoon sessions available.

Entry is free, and tickets will be sent out about a month in advance.

A statement from the show's ticketing partner firm, Lost in TV, says: "Due to the popularity of Antiques Roadshow you may be required to queue to see our expert team.

"There will be plenty to see on the day, and we’d encourage you to make a day of it, seeing some of our filming in progress, and soak up the Roadshow atmosphere.

"Refreshments will be available to buy on the day, but you’re also welcome to bring your own food and drinks.

"Ahead of the event day we’ll send out a more detailed FAQ document with information about everything to expect at the Antiques Roadshow."

Belmont House will be joining the likes of Ightham Mote, Walmer Castle, Chatham Dockyard and Leeds Castle as Kent locations to have welcomed the BBC show.

The programme, presented by Fiona Bruce, draws in about 5 million viewers.

It has been running since 1979, with more than 854 episodes being aired.
