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.
About Hawkshead:
Just north of Esthwaite Water, Hawkshead is a pretty market village marked by a jumbled collection of stone houses, old arches and squares that enchanted both William Wordsworth – who went to school here – and later Beatrix Potter, who lived at Hill Top – a five-minute drive away at Sawrey.
Hawkshead gets its name for the Norse word Houksete. The Houk comes from the Norse settler called Haukur and Saetr means settlement.
Hawkshead was set up by the monks at Furness Abbey as a centre for the medieval wool trade.
William Wordsworth, the poet, was educated in Hawkshead
eatrix Potter, lived at Hill Top in Sawrey, a 5 minute drive away
