Used as Norland Park in the 1995 film Sense and Sensibility. 

Jane Austen includes Sussex in the opening line of Sense and Sensibility. It reads: "The family of Dashwood had been long settled in Sussex." Sussex is a part of southeast England known to be sunny and breezy. (Catherine Golden)

After the passing of Jane Austen's father, the Austen sisters —along with their mother and another female friend— moved into a cottage owned by their borther, Henry. For eight years, Austen would live and write in this house. All six of Austen's novels were revised and published during her time in this house. 

Jane Austen was born in Steventon, Hampshire, in 1775 and lived here until the family moved to Bath in 1801. Her juvenilia, including "Love and Freindship," "The History of England," "Catharine" and other pieces were written here.
