Poetry Path - a year in the life of a hill farmer. |
|
| Twelve poems by Meg Peacocke, lettered on stone by Pip Hall, arranged on a path in
Stenkrith Park. The poems describe the year of a hill farmer month by month, verse
and a vignette scene. |
||
| : 2004 (?): Poetry Path: East Cumbria Countryside Project (Warwick Bridge, Cumbria) |
||
| The photographs here show the poetry after some time in the weather. Everything is
still readable and enjoyable; snapshots do not do justice to the beautiful lettering. |
