Earlier in the year, I was commissioned by the 'Overton Jane Austen Trails project Team’ to illustrate 2 new walking and cycling trails- ‘Overton in Jane Austen’s Time walking trail’ and ‘Overton to Steventon Walking and Cycling Trail’, to be included on an info board and walking trail leaflets. In September, was the community launch of the trails, with an unveiling of the information board and a weekend full of Jane Austen related activities in Overton. The ‘Overton to Steventon walking and cycling trail’ takes you from Jane's birthplace; the Rectory at Steventon Village Hampshire where her father was Rector of the church, and to places significant to her and her family - where she attended balls in Dean, visited friends in Ashe and Quidhampton, Overton where her Brother James became Curate of St Mary’s Church etc. I've also included events that Jane mentions in her diaries- the sad accident of her friend Mrs Lefroy for example. 'Overton in Jane Austen's Time' leads you around the locations that she would have known well and still exist today, and indicates places no longer here - the workhouse for example. I was amazed that the Coop building was there then! This was such an interesting map to work on as it really gives you an idea of her life in this part of Hampshire.. I learned so much about the history of the village too, and I can't wait to get walking an cycling around these trails! It was such a pleasure to work on this project, I really hope you like them
