Jane Austen, Gilbert White and Charles Dickens are all famous or well known and were people with connections to Hampshire.
There are also places that are of interest, a lot of them associated with the run up to D-Day, Winchester, which has a significant History, and of course places like Highclere which is famous for a variety of reasons.
I’ve been looking on the web for people & places that relate to the history of Hampshire. There are just a very few of course, but something tells me that there is a bubbling story, which I am missing out on. I can see a trip to the Portsmouth Municipal Library to try and identify a book, because I am sure there is more history here, and historical people, hidden here.
