More about this scene
The church on the left is St John's, the tower of which is topped off with a small spirelet and dates from the 13th and 14th centuries. In 1318, a Scottish raiding party attempted to destroy the tower and the people who had taken shelter there by setting it alight. The Scots failed, but for centuries afterwards traces of the burning could still be seen.
