About The Blake Cottage Trust

The Cottage is where William Blake wrote Jerusalem and where he enjoyed a burst of extraordinary creativity. We are restoring this 17C cottage to turn it into a centre to celebrate the unique work of this visionary writer and artist and the contribution of his wife Catherine.
