Happy birthday to Beatrix Potter, born July 28th, 1866! Known for Peter Rabbit and more, she was also a dedicated farmer and conservationist who preserved over 4,000 acres in the Lake District, leaving it to the National Trust. Her stories and legacy continue to inspire today.

These vibrant tiles, designed by William De Morgan and painted with a William Morris pattern, were made in 1877 for a grand estate. Forgotten in a cupboard, they were rediscovered in 1928, perfectly preserved. A rare glimpse of Arts & Crafts brilliance.

Charles Voysey, a key Arts & Crafts figure, created simple, flowing patterns inspired by birds, trees & flowers. His decorative designs bridged Arts & Crafts, Art Nouveau & modernism, showing how nature and daily life connect through design.

#OTD in 1878, the British Meteorological Office published its first weekly weather report. The weather has long been a national obsession - here is a record of monthly rainfall in Manchester by renowned scientist John Dalton in 1843. It was a rainy January, but a dry February!

@LakesWeather Thank you Zac for an unforgettable experience. We learnt lots of winter skills; using crampons & an ice axe on Swirral Edge to reach the summit of Helvellyn was a great achievement. The guidance was exceptional & has given us the confidence to plan more adventurous winter walks!

Moot Hall in Aldeburgh, Suffolk, is one of the best-preserved Tudor public buildings in England. 🧱 The Burgess of Aldeburgh built the hall in the early 16th century at a time when the town was enjoying a notable period of prosperity. It once housed several merchant shops.
