Description
We have commissioned a short run of puzzles from NSF Boardgames & Puzzles, part of the Falcon and Jumbo group and more recently Seddons UK, whom we believe manufacture for Gibsons and other large quality Brands. They have both been manufacturing high quality puzzles for many years and we’re sure you’ll enjoy this high quality jigsaw from first piece to last.
Beatrix Potter and the Lake District
Beatrix purchased a considerable amount of land in the Lake District and was advised by local solicitor William Heelis who she met in Hawkshead and later married. She and William lived in Castle Cottage, Near Sawrey, from 1913 until her death.
Yew Tree Farm near Coniston was once owned by Beatrix Potter and also starred as the location of her home, Hilltop, in the film ‘Miss Potter’. In 1929, when Beatrix Potter was 64 years old, the Monk Coniston estate came up for sale. The estate consisted of 2500 acres of land around the head of Coniston Water.
Helen Beatrix Potter was an English writer, illustrator, natural scientist, and conservationist. She is best known for her children’s books featuring the Tale of Peter Rabbit.
