Landslip and Literary Galleries

The landslip gallery tells the story of the great landslip of Christmas 1839 with contemporary illustrations and a scale model. Passing through a display on the Undercliff, you enter the literary gallery.

In the literary gallery you will find displays on a wide range of writers who lived in or visited the town including Jane Austen, G K Chesterton, and John Fowles.
