More about this scene

The Bere Stream, seen looking eastwards from Southbrook Bridge, towards Bedford and Jesty's watercress beds with a glimpse of Woodbury Hill (top left). Pure water produced by artesian wells from the chalk aquifer, inspired the Silva Springs re-branding of the crop that came to fame for Victorian high tea in the Midlands and the North.
