More about this scene

Behind us is the bridge across the young River Pant. As recently as the early 1900s, it could still only carry horses - not carts. In times of flood it was impassable, and even the horses had to go by another route, three miles out of their way. In 1909 it was rebuilt by the County Council. The shop in the picture is now a house called the Store House.
