The Romantic poet Percy
Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) was born in this
pleasant Wealden market town in West Sussex at
Field Place.
He was the son of Sir Timothy
Shelley, later the 2nd baronet of Castle
Goring, and his wife Elizabeth Pilfold.
In his
younger days he was tutored at home by the
Reverend Thomas Edwards.
Horsham is the ideal
base from which to explore the nearby St
Leonard’s Forest and its wooded valleys. |
