Sometime betwen 1784and 1788 hemoved to Hawkshead in Lancashire (now Cumbria) and this iswhere his next two sons were born. He may have moved in order to makebird lime which is a substance made by fermenting holly branches. Agreat deal of holly grew in this part of the Lake District and birdlime wasmuch in demandin the Colonies where it was used not to catchbirds but to catch flies. He returned to Bolsterstone around the timeof his father's death in 1804 and was joint executor of his father'sWill.He lived for a time at Hermit Royd and Thurlstone near Penistone,before moving to a farm in Worrall, which he owned.
