More about this scene
Judging by the state of the road, rose growing did not appear to be high on the natives' list of priorities. During the summer every town in the country faced the problem of combating the stench of horse droppings; large cities had to dispose of tons of the stuff every day. It took 7,000 gallons of water to cleanse one mile of roadway, 18 feet in width, at a cost of 8s 4d a mile.
