More about this scene
This photograph looks northwards along the Ouse from the riverside walk. The footpath crosses the river firstly over the weir and then across the Chinese Bridge. The building with the bell tower below the church is the old Grammar School founded in 1559, although mostly rebuilt in the mid 19th century. The plaque on its wall records its foundation and subsequent restoration in 1851 and 1987: it reads `Eliz reg hujus scholae fundatrix` (`Queen Elizabeth founded this school`). To the left of the school are the Council Offices, which were restored in 1979.
