The earliest record of Haslemere dates to the early 13th century and its quintessential wide high street speaks to a time when the cattle market was a major source of income. Victorian Haslemere became a desirable commuter town for London and one of its best-known residents in this period was Poet Laureate Alfred, Lord Tennyson, who lived at Aldworth House in his later years and died there in 1892. Haslemere Educational Museum was established in 1888 by surgeon Sir Jonathan Hutchinson to provide a venue for locals to learn about natural history and offers many fascinating exhibits to this day.
