Cyprus Well

Cyprus Well was Causley's home for many years until his death. The Society wants to establish the house as a memorial to his work. Due to a generous loan from a local resident, the house has been secured for the Trust; if you would like to give a donation to help purchase and maintain the house, then you can download more information here.
