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.

As you can see, it was very foggy today! These were taken on the way to work this morning (I got out of the car!), and the fog didn't move much all day. Very dreary so not many customers in Hawkshead. Heard some sirens while at work which apparently was an ambulance and two mountain rescue crews heading towards the ferry. I forgot to mention that I think I spotted an ex premiership manager in Hawkshead yesterday. Actually, we conversed. I'm sure you can guess who it might be, he's a regular visitor.
