More about this scene

Looking south-eastwards from Abbotsbury Hill to Abbotsbury Gardens in Stavordale Wood (right) and Cleverlawns (centre). Behind is the wooded western spur of Conegar on the side of Chapel Hill, and medieval St Catherine's Chapel (left) with Portland projecting beyond. The Fleet waters, between Bum Point and Shipmoor Point, obscure Abbotsbury Swannery. On the far side of the lagoon is Chesil Bank.
