More about this scene
The Cherry Tree restaurant advertises its grills, well-known locally; from this point coach trips started, more ambitious in destination than the old wagonette trips. Road-side lamps have also changed in style, and traffic includes a heavy motor lorry (just visible in the distance) and a vintage invalid carriage (left). New bungalows pronounce the village's popularity as a place to retire or commute from, but the tolls charged by Shard Bridge Company to cross the river were a sore point.
