I am planning on using Elizabeth's Beatrix Potter unit next month. Any ideas on composers/music for that era/genre?

Elgar is always a nice example of the era.

You might also want to try the soundtrack to the film Miss Potter. You can use the link to hear samples, composed by Nigel Westlake.

Delius (impressionistic) and Vaughn Williams (considered patriotic) are also recent English composers.
