'Home at Grasmere' extract by William Wordsworth 

An extract from William Wordsworth's poem, 'Home at Grasmere', written in 1800 at Dove Cottage. Read by Hannah Britton.
In 1799, William Wordsworth fell in love with Dove Cottage and Grasmere whilst on a walking tour of the Lake District. Within a few months, he had set up home here in the hamlet of Town End with his sister Dorothy. It was whilst living here that Wordsworth produced the most famous and best-loved of his poems and Dorothy wrote her fascinating Grasmere journal.
