Hamptonne

Hamptonne Country Life Museum is the result of a partnership involving a number of different island heritage organisations. This substantial farm complex was bought by The National Trust for Jersey in 1987 with the financial assistance of the States of Jersey and the restoration work was co-ordinated and carried out by the Jersey Heritage Trust, funded by the Société Jersiaise.
