Annie Brassey at the Museum...


Starting today at Hastings Museum and Art Gallery an exhibition about Anna 'Annie' Brassey, wife of Thomas Brassey, 19th century Hastings MP, for whom what is now the main library in Hastings (currently closed for refurbishment, as I have recently written), was built in 1878 (history of the Brassey Institute). Annie was a well-known voyager and writer in her own right... The exhibition, called "In the Footsteps of Annie", carries on until the 3rd of July (more details at the Museum's website).
