More about this scene
The farmhouses and cottages all have steps down to the street because the old unmetalled road to Cambridge had been gradually lowered by use. In c1830 a new road skirting the parkland of Hinxton Hall was built, bypassing the village. The nearest cottages need to be re-thatched; longstraw thatch needs to be patched regularly and re-coated every fifteen years.
