Making Friends

Swarthmoor Hall, viewed across its quilt garden. The house, which dates from the Elizabethan era, is regarded as the cradle of Quakerism. It was here, barely a mile from Ulverston, that in summer 1652 a new religion was born. The house and its 130-acre estate, now an organic dairy farm, are owned by Britain Yearly Meeting.
