More about this scene
The cows are lying down, a sure sign of rain, the old saying goes, but whether this is true or false they add a picturesque finishing touch to a watery scene. Situated about 8 miles north of Leicester, by Domesday 'Barhou' was settled. Today, it is the river and the lime works which are the village's most valuable assets. The lime produced here is considered to be of the finest quality.
