Thompson, Flora Jane


English novelist. Her trilogy Lark Rise to Candleford (1945) describes Victorian rural life.

Born in Juniper Hill, Oxfordshire, which was the inspiration for ‘Lark Rise’, she began working at the Post Office in Fringford, at age 14. After winning a magazine competition in 1911, she went on to write short stories and newspaper articles, before her essays on childhood were published from 1939 onwards.
