More about this scene
On the left a woman stands in the door of the Post Office, which in 1895 also acted as a money order and telegraph office. Just beyond a carpenter is at work. There is a sizeable stack of what look like floorboards piled against the wall. The downs can just be glimpsed over the rooftops - in 1875 the East?Kent Lunatic Asylum was built here, and accommodated 900 patients.
