Everything about Steventon Hampshire totally explained
Steventon is a small village in north
Hampshire,
England. In the
2001 census it had a population of 1,502. It is situated just south-west of the town of
Basingstoke, close to the villages of
Overton,
Oakley and
North Waltham, and to Junction 7 of the
M3.
Steventon is best known as the birth place of author
Jane Austen, who went on to live in the nearby village of
Chawton. Sadly the rectory in which she wrote
Pride & Prejudice,
Northanger Abbey and
Sense & Sensibility was destroyed in 1823. All that's left is an old pump in a field next to a lime tree that's believed to have been planted by James Austen, Jane's eldest brother.
The 12th century Steventon Church, where Jane Austen worshipped, stands almost unchanged from those days. In the church are memorial tablets to James Austen, who took over the parish from their father, his two wives and some of his relations. Their graves are in the churchyard.
