More about this scene

A low, clapper-style footbridge across the River Wye in Monsal Dale leads to the hamlet of Upperdale, which we can see across the river. Beyond the scattered farms and cottages, the limestone hills sweep up towards the large exposed cutting, just visible above the trees to the right, which has been made for the imminent coming of the Midland Railway.
