Victorian Anglican Parish Church: William Wordsworth, Lake District National Park Colouring Page

(0)
Complicated Colouring Page Top-Up Activity. William Worsdworth English Poet inspired complicated colouring page of St Mary’s Anglican Church in Rydal, Lake District, England. St. Mary’s Church is an active Anglican parish church located in the village of Rydal, in the Lake District, Cumbria, England. Built in the Gothic Revival style, the church was funded by Lady le Fleming of Rydal Hall at a cost of £1,500. The foundation stone was laid in 1823 (Victorian era), and the church was opened in 1824, with its consecration taking place in 1825. The architect was George Webster. The church is historically significant for its connection to William Wordsworth, the famous poet, who helped choose the church’s site, which was originally an orchard. St. Mary’s Church is a Grade II listed building* and is recorded in the National Heritage List for England. I originally hand drew this colouring page of the church at Rydal in the Lake District for my students to colour in as part of our module on buildings, the poet William Wordsworth, National Parks, and tourism in the Lake District. But it would be just as useful for Easter and Spring time activities as well especially given Wordsworth’s poem about daffodils.

William Wordsworth

William Wordsworth

(0)
A small collection of photos of William Wordsworth's former home in the village of Rydal in the Lake District, Cumbria, England and the church where he is buried in Grasmere. William Wordsworth was a famous poet who lived between 1770-1880. (Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Wordsworth). For more photos of Rydal and Rydal Water check out my Rydal photo collection. I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way, They stretched in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced; but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company: I gazed—and gazed—but little thought What wealth the show to me had brought: For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils.
