Wordsworth Country

William Wordsworth (1770–1850) is possibly one of the most famous and well-loved English poets, and intrinsically linked to the Lake District. He was born in Cockermouth and schooled at Hawkshead Grammar School. After some time studying and travelling he moved to Dove Cottage, Grasmere where he wrote some of his most famous work, prior to moving to Rydal Mount near Ambleside.
