The Wordsworth House, where William and sister Dorothy spent their first few years, is presented as a functioning eighteenth-century home – with a costumed cook sharing recipes in the kitchen and a clerk completing the ledger with quill and ink. It’s an education, in the best sense, and a really excellent visit.
