Discover the charm of Selborne, a picturesque English village nestled in the heart of Hampshire. Born in this idyllic setting, the Reverend Gilbert White (1720-1793) penned his renowned natural history observations. Wander through the village and marvel at the South View of Selborne Church, the Temple in the Parish, and the Vicarage House, all depicted in engravings. Explore the winding way leading to the Gracious Street, once home to Lords Northbrook, Granville, Selborne, and Salisbury. Delve into the village's rich history with a visit to the Gilbert White Memorial Window in Selborne Church, a 20th-century tribute by artist CM Dixon. Step back in time at The Wakes, Selborne, a 20th-century depiction of White's home. Selborne's influence extends beyond England, with a namesake avenue in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe. Experience the magic of winter in Selborne as a line of trees stands proud against the snow.
