More about this scene

A splendid panoramic view, taken early in the year, of the Stour Valley looking across to the Julliberrie Downs, with the 14th-century tower of Chartham church rising above the trees. The smoking chimney of the paper mill is in the middle foreground, with the cottages of Chartham Hatch just behind. The team of agricultural workers in the field is preparing the ground for early summer crops.
