They are apposite, for Moulton College of Agriculture occupies the land north of Moulton village.
Back to the east of St Peter's Hill, the photographer looks north along Castlegate, with the Beehive Inn on the left; the leaves hide a beehive set in the tree, which is still there.
From the 12th century, the rearing of sheep for their wool became a major source of revenue for the monastic houses in the north of England.
The village stands on the north bank of Doulting Water, also known as the River Sheppey. Thus the name of the village may also derive from the words 'dun', meaning 'a hill', and 'dwr', 'water'.
All to the left on the north bank, apart from the grand pedimented and columned Fishmongers Hall of 1831 near the bridge, has now gone.

North Street 1899 This view was captured from just outside the old Half Moon Hotel, later to become the Urban District Council Offices.

Eight miles further north along the coast is Sutton on Sea, another seaside resort somewhat overshadowed by Mablethorpe, the two linked by caravan sites.
In this view the photographer looks north from the lane that skirts Will's Neck.
