Max Gate
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Max Gate is the former home of Thomas Hardy and is located in Dorchester, Dorset, England.
Hardy designed and lived in Max Gate from 1885 until his death in 1928. It was here that he wrote Tess of the d'Urbervilles, Jude the Obscure and The Mayor of Casterbridge, as well as much of his poetry.
Max Gate is now owned by the National Trust. The house contains several pieces of Hardy's furniture, although his study has been relocated to the Dorset County Museum.
