More about this scene
Here we see the river bridges and Nag's Head island, which separates the main river on the right and the back water on its left. The bridge on the right is known as Burford Bridge and that on the left is Abingdon Bridge. Oxfordshire's boundary was on the right bank with the riverside path until 1974, when Abingdon and north Berkshire became part of Oxfordshire. In the foreground are the roofs of the barns and warehouses of the maltings, evidence of the importance of the river to Abingdon's industrial past.
