About Us

Jane Austen’s House is one of the most important sites in English Literature and our national heritage. From this home Jane Austen wrote and revised all six of her novels, creating characters and worlds that are today read across the world and remain deeply influential for writers, readers and creatives.

The House has been open as a museum since 1949 and today houses an unparalleled collection of letters, first editions and objects in a beautiful and inspiring setting. Alongside permanent exhibitions the museum creates an annual program of temporary displays and regular festivals and workshops, as well as welcoming visits from schools and universities.

Immerse yourself in the fascinating story of British Army flying by visiting a hidden gem. The Army Flying Museum sits adjacent to the Army Air Corps Airfield at Middle Wallop, just 10 minutes from Andover.  The Museum houses the impressive journey of British soldiers in the air from the pioneering days of balloons and kites to the Glider Pilot Regiment landing at Arnhem, right through to modern helicopter operations. Visitors are frequently surprised at the volume of artefacts, medals, fixed wing and rotary aircraft.
