Saxonbury

Virginia Woolf’s grandparents and mother lived in this house in East Sussex, when the Jackson family returned to England from India. “It was a good country house with a pleasant garden and two or three fields.” All through her life, Julia “was constantly at Saxonbury... keeping an eye on her mother’s state of health.”
