The project to restore Blake's cottage, which has suffered from severe disrepair, is being funded by a £55,000 grant to fix its thatched roof and support larger restoration efforts.
Over a decade of neglect has left the cottage in profound disrepair, calling for a comprehensive restoration plan to revive it for public appreciation.
The vision includes not only roof restoration but also transforming the cottage and garden to reflect its historical significance during Blake's life, culminating in a dedicated center.
Blake's contributions to art and literature, once overlooked, are now being recognized through initiatives aimed at honoring his legacy and enhancing public access to his life.
