More about this scene
George Gilbert Scott certainly transformed the village, 'restoring' the church, rebuilding the manor house and building the school. All this was done at the expense of the local benefactor, William Gibbs, after his father had died in 1842 (there is a marble effigy of him on a tomb also designed by Scott within the church). Scott also rebuilt the river bridge in 1864, a fine red brick one in a medieval style, seen here from the south by the Thames. We can just see the church spirelet.
