Hannah More House, Blagdon, North Somerset
This house was built in the 17th century. Social reformer Hannah More is said to have used the house as a schoolroom during her residence at Wrington from about 1783 to 1833. She worked with William Wilberforce to help abolish slavery. She wrote poems on the subject. In 1788 she wrote 'Slavery, a Poem', to coincide with Wilberforce's parliamentary campaign for abolition.
