Today Levi and i went to Grasmere which is probably the Cumbria's most popular village, thanks to William Wordsworth. We visited William's tombstone in the churchyard of St Oswald's Church, now one of the most visited literary shrines in the world. The Church stands on the bank of the River Rothay.
At one of the entrances to the churchyard is this small building, which was the village school for over 220 years, from its opening in 1630 A.D. William Wordsworth, his wife and his sister all taught here in the early 19th Century. It is now home to the famous Sarah Nelson's Gingerbread Shop. Which we also visited and yes tested the Gingerbread ( yum yum) but it was a very wet day, so didn't stay long,
