Acorn Bank's Dorothy Una Ratcliffe - In Her Own Words
Heritage Open Day: See and hear Dorothy Una Ratcliffe's poetry in the Kitchen at Acorn Bank. Supported by a Vintage Book Sale organised by the Secondhand Bookshop volunteers. Prolific writer, socialite and traveller Dorothy Una Ratcliffe lived at Acorn Bank from 1930 to 1950.- Read her poetry and listen to 'T'Croodle Beck' recited in Yorkshire dialect. Dorothy's writing holds a deep connection to nature and folklore and is written in Yorkshire dialect with directness and truth. The language Dorothy uses reminds us how our connection to nature has changed over the last few decades, as her every sentence uses nature to comment on the human experience .
