More about this scene

This view from the fields south-east of Stanion shows the small Northamptonshire village centred on the medieval church, with its fine 15th-century tower with broach spire. The electricity pylons march towards Corby just over the distant horizon. By 1960, the village was surrounded by housing estates. The woods conceal former ironstone quarries that fed the iron making industry of Corby.
