More about this scene
The cobblestones was the dock area where the barges would come into the village to unload their goods. It was probably built in the 13th century, when the town of Swavesey was first established. It fell out of use when the St Ives to Cambridge railway was built in c1850. The house with the 'Sold' sign was the Swan Inn; like the other houses it was built on a bank above the dock.
