Robert Walker (priest, of Seathwaite)

Robert Walker (1709–1802), called Wonderful Walker, was a Church of England priest in Dunnerdale, now in Cumbria. In around 1804, William and Dorothy Wordsworth became interested in the local stories about him; William mentioned Walker in The Excursion, and later in one of his sonnets.
