Bowood House was built in the Georgian Period and our Curator Dr. Lizzie Rogers invites you to visit and learn about this incredible era.  Jane Austen’s impact echoes through time and influences our preconceptions about this fascinating period for women.  Dr. Lizzie Rogers is a writer and historian specialising in women’s history and historic houses.  Her passion and insight into the lives of young women, their ideas and feelings are sure to entertain and educate during her selected talks.

More Jane Austen activities will be taking place over the weekend – details to be confirmed.
