(1803-1877)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How did Jane Austen and her family? Did they go by stagecoach? The dreadful condition of British roads caused great apprehension to all classes of travelers. Making a journey anywhere in the country was a big undertaking and often a gentleman composed his last will and testament before his departure.&nbsp; Traveling in vehicles was only possible during the day or on the nights with very bright moonlight with few vehicles attempting road travel in winter and any travel on a Sunday was frowned upon. <a href=\"http:\/\/books2read.com\/SuziLoveTravel\">books2read.com\/SuziLoveTravel<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Description of Stage Coach Travel in England.&nbsp; via 1815&nbsp;Journal Tour of Great Britain.&nbsp;&#8220;The gentlemen coachmen, with half-a dozen great coats about them, immense capes, a large nosegay at the button-hole, high mounted on an elevated seat, with squared elbows, a prodigious whip, beautiful horses, four in hand, drive in a file to Salthill, a place about twenty miles from London, and return, stopping in the way at the several public-houses and gin-shops where stage-coachmen are in the habit of stopping for a dram, and for parcels and passengers on the top of the others as many as seventeen persons. These carriages are not suspended, but rest on steel springs, of a flattened oval shape, less easy than the old mode of leathern braces on springs. Some of these stage coaches carry their baggage below the level of the axletree.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized is-style-default\"><a href=\"books2read.com\/SuziLoveTravel\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/suzilove.files.wordpress.com\/2021\/08\/mailcoach_thelondontolouth-royal-mail-print-by-charles-cooper-henderson.png?w=1024\" alt=\"The London To Louth Royal Mail, England, U.K. Print by Charles Cooper Henderson.
