Caerleon, The Village 1893

More about this scene
This is a grand view of the River Usk, which winds its way through Caerleon. The solitary horse-drawn carriage in the middle of the road hints at quieter, perhaps gentler times, even if life was in many ways harsher too. A well- developed town for the time of this picture, it also shows the magnificent rural surroundings, as yet unencroached upon by 20th century development.
