Our Beekeeping Heritage - West Country Bee Houses

摘要

The West Country is a veritable treas ure store of beekeeping archaeology in the form of bee boles, alcoves, sites of winter storage and bee houses if you care to seek them out. It really is a question of where to look and how you go about tracking them down, all based upon your own personal interest and research into their past history. The extant remains of our beekeeping past are to be found in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset and Dorset, and are there for residents and visitors alike, for there is muchto learn at every site you visit.
