Director of Jane Austen’s House, but also; reader, maker, allotmenteer, history obsessive, and occasional adventurer.
All opinions my own.

Spent this morning at the utterly inspirational @PHMMcr A masterclass on multilayered interpretation, bringing vital, and all too often unheard voices and stories to the fore.
An exceptional and essential museum.

Next: @TheJohnRylands
Later: @ThePortico with @EGaskellsHouse

🌳 CASSANDRA’S ORCHARD 🌳

To mark the 250th birthday of Cassandra Austen, Jane’s beloved sister, we plan to create an orchard in the courtyard, reimagining the lost trees referenced in the sisters’ letters.

@ChilternOAM is an AMAZING museum that has been inspiring visitors for decades, sharing and preserving 2000 years of British history.
It is now under threat due to utter greed. Please read their statement, like and retweet! If you're anywhere near Jct 17 of the M25 go visit!

Fascinating peek into the dark and dangerous world of Regency Britain from @UkNatArchives https://t.co/84pVDd6dcb

I spent yesterday afternoon time travelling through @butserfarm My first visit to this really quite extraordinary and special place, but it will not be the last. Special thanks to the great lady who helped me to finally crack spinning with a drop spindle.

[LizzieJAH @DirectorJAH1]

@MrsMcGreeno @ChichesterFT FABULOUS gold chair stacking. I loved the little nods to other musicals all the way through

[LizzieJAH @DirectorJAH1]

If you are even vaguely close to Chichester this summer, get tickets to this fabulous, fabulous show @ChichesterFT After the standing ovation, we danced down the steps and out into the night. Just brilliant.

[Lucy Worsley @Lucy_Worsley]

You can also see in the picture that my friends at @JaneAustenHouse know exactly what kind of little gift to get me. As Jane Austen said of the consolations of middle age: 'I am put on the sofa by the fire and can drink as much wine as I like.'

[Lucy Worsley @Lucy_Worsley]

Hello to my friends around the world! Today's a special day for a person, a place and a cause that's close to my heart. On this day, the anniversary of Jane's untimely death, do consider giving a gift to the lovely charity which runs the @JaneAustenHouse!

@Lucy_Worsley @JaneAustenHouse We're so pleased you like it, the least we could to to say thank you for your fabulous preface to our new guidebook! Big thank yous from everyone at Chawton

[LizzieJAH @DirectorJAH1]

@JaneAustenHouse @CeChawton I left Chawton, with our bouquet earlier this afternoon. I followed almost the same route as Jane would have done. I walked along College Street and then into the coolness of @WinCathedral, before laying our bouquet from @JaneAustenHouse on Jane's grave.

[LizzieJAH @DirectorJAH1]

Thank you to the @artfund for such a fabulous evening and your ongoing, transformational support of @JaneAustenHouse. If you're not a member of this vital organisation, sign up now!

Lovely evening @DesignMuseum with lots of fabulous museum people for the @artfund Museum of The Year awards. Huge congratulations to @HornimanMuseum for scooping the top prize.

[LizzieJAH @DirectorJAH1]

@jenniebatchelor @JaneAustenHouse Thank you for coming! Lovely to have a catch up, and an excuse to have a rummage in the store.

[LizzieJAH @DirectorJAH1]

On holiday at the other end of the South Downs in the beautiful village of Alfriston, and have found quite possibly the best bookshop in the world @MuchAdoBooks
I was very restrained to only come out with these four.
