More about this scene
Symondsbury is an intimate little village positioned between two rounded hills, and probably on the route of a medieval road linking Bridport and Axminster. The 14th- or 15th-century church of St John Baptist has a barrel roof, made by the shipwrights from West Bay which had been plastered over until the church was cleaned and renovated some 20 years after this picture was taken. To its right is Raymond`s Charity School, built of yellow stone in 1868.
