Highbury, Surry: Emma takes place in the vaguely named “large and populous village” in Highbury.
London: Also a prominent location in this novel.
Portsmouth: Mentioned several times in the book with the main character, Fanny, traveling there often.
Brighton: This is where Maria goes on her honeymoon, taking Julia with her, and then they move on to Mr. Rushworth's new London home.
Northamptonshire: Mansfield Park is a fictional location located in Northamptonshire (now more commonly known as Northampton), England.
London: London of course plays a huge role in many of the novels, as it should since it is so prominent. In Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth’s (or Eliza, which also happens to be the name of Jane Austen’s cousin) aunt and uncle lived there.
Kent: Kent is also briefly mentioned, with Ramsgate being the sea-side resort that Georgiana Darcy stayed for a summer.
Brighton: The town of Brighton is located in Sussex. Brighton is mentioned in the novel and movie adaptation, and in Lydia’s words, “That's the place to find husbands.” Lydia is taken there by some family friends, and then runs away with the perfidious Wickham. This is a problem since women of this time are not to go anywhere unchaperoned.
The Most Prominent Locations were Fictional: Even though it is stated in the book that the Bennet’s live in Longbourn, a town in Hertfordshire, Mr. Bingley’s home is Netherfield Park, and Mr. Darcy’s is Pemberley, none of these locations actually exist.
