Buckle Yeat is situated in the village of Near Sawrey. The name Buckle Yeat is over 300 years old and it means fasten the gate.In years gone by the gate referred to would be the gate to the village. Near Sawrey was once home to the children's writer Beatrix Potter about whom the movie Miss Potter is all about. Hill Top Farm where she wrote many of her stories is a museum and is open to the public.

A walk in the woods
Had a nice walk tonight down past Dub Howe farm then through Bishop Wood and took a new permitted path through Castle Wood and joined the footpath at Wilfin Beck bridge.
The pictures are one showing a tree blown down in the January storms, and the other is a view of Wilfin Beck off the footbridge.
