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.

What started with trimming the clematis in the back garden sort of grew into a major clear out, we had so much rubbish I had to borrow a trailer to move it. It lets loads more light in and opens up more ground for planting, and Denis is salivating at which plants to put in.
Windermere Air Festival this weekend so hopefully clear skies and we can get up onto Scale Ivy to watch some of the displays.
