More about this scene
In the distance, on the right, is Bank Parade house, once the home of Sir James Mackenzie (1853-1925). He was a medical practitioner in Burnley, and became famous for his researches into diseases of the heart. A plaque on the building records his achievements. To the left we can see the roof of St Peter's. On the extreme right, the wall is that of the Bank Hall estate, the home of General the Hon Sir James Yorke Scarlett, the hero of Balaclava and the reason for the proximity of the Russian cannons.
