history

The Hamptonne Country Life Museum project represents a partnership involving a number of different island heritage organisations.

in 1987 Hamptonne was bought by the National Trust for Jersey with the financial assistance of the States of Jersey. The Société Jersiaise undertook to restore the site.

Following archaeological investigation and restoration of some of the buildings, Hamptonne was opened to the public in June 1993 as one of the sites within the Jersey Heritage Trust.

Further developments led to the opening of the Langlois building and the colombier in the spring of 1996.
