all that is best about Lakeland and its people and preserves that
essence for future generations to enjoy. This is achieved by the

have created the building, collection and exhibitions.

"Home
of William Wordsworth and his family between 1813 - 1850"
The house, which now
belongs to descendents of the poet, retains a lived-in, family
atmosphere and has seen little change since Wordsworth and his
family came to live there in 1813.
The dining room, part of the old Tudor cottage, with its original
flagged floor and oak beams, contrasts pleasingly with the larger
proportions of the drawing room and library, added in 1750.
