More about this scene

Large open fields surrounded many of the coastal plain settlements, and through the villages passed a solitary narrow street, often named after the village. Although Broadwater Street was picturesque, it was eventually unable to cope with the increase in modern traffic. It is regrettable that part of it had to be widened in 1932, which resulted in the demolition of several historic buildings.
