Every Stop Has a Story

Where It Was Written

The house where Jane Austen lived when she finished Northanger Abbey, a novel she had first drafted years before in Hampshire.

The Allens' Address

The grand, wide street where Catherine Morland stays with the Allens, the well-off neighbours who bring her to Bath.

The Social Engine

The heart of Georgian Bath's daily routine, where Mrs Allen finds an old school friend and Catherine meets Isabella Thorpe.

The Tilneys' Lodgings

The fashionable shopping street where the Tilneys lodge, and where Catherine is turned away from their door.

The Thorpes

The Thorpes' lodgings, home to the boastful John Thorpe, whose lies to General Tilney decide Catherine's fate.

The Upper Rooms

The ballroom where Catherine's first ball is such a crush that she sees nothing but the ladies' feathers.

The Picturesque

The hillside where Henry Tilney lectures Catherine on the picturesque, just as her Gothic imagination starts running wild.
