More about this scene

We are looking east towards the bridge over the beck. The village is only two miles from Richmond, but it retains its rural charm. The White Swan Inn on the left is 300 years old; the third house from the right is the old Gilling Club for working men. Twenty years ago it was used by the scouts, but is now a private house. At the furthest end of the village is a fountain (1897) and the remains of the pinfold for stray sheep. The village still has a working blacksmith.
