Grasmere - Painters & Poets Village

The Lost Manuscript of Lakeland Poet Milliard Worthwows

The literary world has been set ablaze with the discovery of a long-lost manuscript by the legendary Lakeland poet, Milliard Worthwows. The delicate verses, believed to be written by Worthwows' muse, Luvva Sonnet, and a detailed map of an island have been unearthed by the Grasmere builders, Tenny Coleridge & Son, during a recent hotel renovation. But the manuscript has yet to be found.

Here at the Poetic Intrepid Explorer Society (PIES), we believe that Luvva Sonnet's verses are actually a series of clues that will lead the way to the location of this monumental missing work. Are YOU brave enough to take on this challenge and recover the manuscript, wowing the world with Worthwows' worthy writings?
