Richard Jefferies Museum

The Richard Jefferies Museum in Swindon is housed in the farmhouse at Coate, where Richard Jefferies was born in 1848.

The Richard Jefferies Museum is a museum based in the old farm of the famous victorian writer Richard Jeffries. Honoring the famous victorian author, the museum pays tribute to the work of Jeffries and offers visitors the opportunity to explore the inner workings of the seventeenth-century cottage and the surrounding grounds bought by the Jeffries in 1800.
