The Coleridge Walk with Sheila, April 2013, PART NINE
What a brilliant find, a hidden jewel in the Somerset Hills---a very old, traditional walled garden---Prince Charles would be impressed, as no doubt, were Wordsworth and Coleridge who may well have relaxed here out of the wind. A place for quiet reflection, to listen to the birds and bees, see the growth all around, of flowers, vegetables, and become saturated with a pleathora of fragrances, scents and aromas filling the air in a never ending stream. The gentle breeze carrying bursts of invisible concotions which bounce off the high walls influencing and inducing the imagination with pheronomic creations...
Walking in the Quantocks
Good to see so many families walking in the Quantock Hills this weekend. The February weather here in the Quantocks was perfect for a Sunday pub walk over to the Plough at Holford from Nether Stowey

The Coleridge Walk with Sheila, April 2013, PART SEVEN
Through the wood and now on route to the village of Holford and Alfoxden House where the poet William Wordsworth and his sister Dorothy once lived--just a few miles walk from Nether Stowey where Coleridge lived with his wife and family. One of my sister did the curtains for Alfoxden in the not long distant past.
The Coleridge Walk With Sheila, April 2013, Part Three
Here I continue with the walk following 'Coleridge Way' around part of the periphery of the Quantocks from Castle Hill, Nether Stowey and all the way to Porlock. However, I will only be doing just a section of the total walk on this particular day and will need to return and finish the rest of the walk in stages.
Part Three I meander for a mile or so following a 'bubbling brook' in the footsteps of Samuel Coleridge and William Wordsworth---I follow the feather, the quill---the symbol for 'Coleridge Way'---its a lovely sunny day --the last day of April and beauty surrounds me---fit for poets...This was the Way the two poets often walked as they transversed between their houses--Coleridge's cottage in Nether Stowey to Alfoxden House at Holford. In later Parts I re-visit Alfoxden House and make new discoveries---a beautiful old English walled garden--a jewel--quintessentially perfect for tea with the poets--now it looks like it has been abandoned hidden in the hills, haunted by old gardeners and women in long dresses----PART TEN will reveals all.

Places to see in ( Lynmouth - UK )
Lynmouth is a village in Devon, England, on the northern edge of Exmoor. The village straddles the confluence of the West Lyn and East Lyn rivers, in a gorge 700 feet below Lynton, which was the only place to expand to once Lynmouth became as built-up as possible. Both villages are connected by the Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway, which works two cable-connected cars by gravity, using water tanks.
The two villages are a civil parish governed by Lynton and Lynmouth Town Council. The parish boundaries extend southwards from the coast, and include hamlets such as Barbrook and small moorland settlements such as East Ilkerton, West Ilkerton and Shallowford.
The South West Coast Path and Tarka Trail pass through, and the Two Moors Way runs from Ivybridge in South Devon to Lynmouth; the Samaritans Way South West runs from Bristol to Lynton, and the Coleridge Way from Nether Stowey to Lynmouth. Lynmouth was described by Thomas Gainsborough, who honeymooned there with his bride Margaret Burr, as the most delightful place for a landscape painter this country can boast.
The Sillery Sands beach [a] is just off the South West Coast Path and is used by naturists. Percy Bysshe Shelley, his wife Harriet and his sister-in-law Eliza stayed in Lynmouth between June and August 1812. Shelley worked on political pamphlets and on the poem Queen Mab. He was delighted with the village.
A lifeboat station was established in Lynmouth on 20 January 1869, five months after the sailing vessel Home was wrecked nearby. The lifeboat was kept in a shed on the beach, until a purpose-built boat house was built at the harbour. The village of Hollow Bay in The Secret of Crickley Hall by James Herbert is based on Lynmouth; Devil's Cleave is based on the East Lyn Valley and Watersmeet. The book brings together two stories, that of child evacuees during the Second World War and that of the 1952 flood disaster that devastated Lynmouth.
