We’re delighted to see Blake Cottage featured in a thoughtful new article by writer Alex Leith in Rosa magazine, exploring William Blake’s time in Felpham.

Blake’s Cottage is starting to look exactly as he knew it!
Today we not only have a beautiful new thatch, but we have also lowered the eastern extension so that the cottage once again resembles Blake’s own depiction of it in Plate 28 of his epic Milton.

Tomorrow our trustee Camila Oliveira will speak about the impact of the celebrations of the first centenary on his reception and popularity, and why the second centenary (2027) should be celebrated even more.

🌾 Habemus thatch! 🌾
The eastern extension is now being thatched. This represents a huge milestone in the restoration of Blake’s Cottage.
With your support, we can complete the work and open the cottage in time for William Blake’s bicentennial in 2027.

What a truly magical evening at St Mary’s ✨🎶
A beautiful carol service filled a packed church, voices raised in joy and hearts full of Christmas spirit. The surprise highlight? Chocolate angels shared with the congregation!
Our thanks to everyone who made it so special.
