More about this scene

This is a quiet spot just west of Beverley. The village was built around Walkington Hall, and has a charming village pond. In the 1960s, farm land began to be sold off for development, and the village supports a post office and general store, together with two pubs - The Dog and Duck and The Ferguson Fawsitt, named after the lord of the manor.
