Psst… Fancy a peek inside Jane Austen’s old schoolroom? 👀

Tucked away in Reading town centre, the historic Abbey Gateway was once part of the school where Jane Austen studied and lived as a girl.

Today, you can see the schoolroom for yourself through the Abbey Quarter Tour with Reading Museum. A lovely little stop for Austen fans, history buffs and anyone who enjoys uncovering the stories behind a place.

Take your time to spot the ships, battles, horses, feasts and, of course, that famous arrow. 🧵
