More about this scene
There is more than one way to catch a fish; onlookers must be amused at the antics of the unsuccessful fishermen. One in desperation has left his gear on the bank and has paddled into the river to assist the other hopefuls in an attempt to locate some fish. This large mill situated below the town on the river Wensum was built in 1833, and constructed of white brick and stone. It has an attractive ancient bridge of three arches; there is also a modern bridge on the right, which is less significant and made of wood.
