More about this scene

The thatched house with a brick front is The Rooks of c1620. The horse and trap are coming up Old Paper Mill Lane, which seems too narrow to have enabled the van and the trap to pass. All the buildings in the lane have been demolished; the site has been redeveloped and called Lime Kiln Close.
