Thomas Hardy's Cottage, in Higher Bockhampton, Dorset, is a small cob and thatch building that is the birthplace of the English author Thomas Hardy. He was born there in 1840 and lived in the cottage until he was aged 34—during which time he wrote the novels ''Under the Greenwood Tree'' (1872) and ''Far from the Madding Crowd'' (1874)—when he left home to be married to Emma Gifford. The cottage was built by Hardy's great-grandfather in 1800. It is now a National Trust property, and a popular tourist attraction. The property has a typical cottage garden, and the interior displays furniture which, although not from the Hardy family, is original to the period.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/hardy-country/things-to-see-and-do/page-2/ )〕 The property is situated on the northern boundary of Thorncombe Wood.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.dorsetforyou.com/thorncombewood )〕 It is only three miles from Max Gate,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/hardy-country/ )〕 the house that he designed and lived in with Emma from 1885 until his death in 1928. In 2012 the go ahead was given to a project to build a new visitor centre near the cottage.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ntsouthwest.co.uk/2012/12/plans-to-transform-thomas-hardys-birthplace-have-been-given-the-green-light-with-funding-from-heritage-lottery-fund/ )〕 The project also included new trails in Thorncombe Wood.〔 The project, which secured £525,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund, was a joint partnership between Dorset County Council and the National Trust. The visitor centre opened in September 2014.〔 ==References==
