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 dry day but a lot cooler than it has been lately, the village seems a bit quieter with the Potter fans, even Mr McGregor is not taking as many donations.
We had a rough count up and Denis had to get the car out to deliver another £400 to the Tarn Hill Trust committee, that's over £1200 so far this year, a big thanks to everyone who has taken a picture and popped some change in his plant pot. I guess there will be pictures all over the world.
