A Literary Trip To Dove Cottage, Grasmere, The Lake District

 

A few selected photos from my recent trip with the Brontë Parsonage Museum to Dove Cottage, the home of the poet William Wordsworth (1799 - 1808)

The letter (original) Branwell Brontë sent to Wordsworth asking his opinion on the poetry he had been writing. Sadly for Branwell Wordsworth never replied.
