Monica “Dearest Bun”… A Haydon Bridge Love Story by Dennis Telford

Philip Larkin enjoyed many holidays in Haydon Bridge in the flat, 1A Ratcliffe Road, owned by Monica Jones. According to Andrew Motion’s biography, they ‘lazed, drank, read, pottered around the village and amused themselves with private games. The place always cheered them both up’.  ’As always, the place worked its spell’, wrote Larkin.
