More about this scene

Swaffham Bulbeck's vicar for much of the 19th century was Leonard Blomefield, alias Jenyns. He was a close friend of Charles Darwin, and they both used to go on nature rambles together. It was Jenyns, in fact, who gave up his place on the Beagle to allow Darwin to go instead.
