More about this scene
This fine photograph of Malmesbury Abbey was taken from the north, with the abbey mill buildings below. Just below the abbey we can see the extensive orchard which has now become the Cloister Gardens. Flowing under the charming bridge in the foreground is the River Avon; this tributary is called the Tetbury Avon (it is also known as the Newnton River or the River Ingleburne). The Malmesbury Branch Railway line is situated to the east of the river - the GWR eventually opened this line, which was linked to the Dauntsey Railway, in December 1877. Dauntsey station was opened c1868.
