More about this scene

The view from Keeper's Cottage, left, leads us down the lane towards the Wombwell Arms, named after local landowner, Sir George Wombwell. The church of St Thomas stands in the village, and nearby can be found Byland Abbey and Newburgh Priory. Today the hill is covered by a flourishing forest.
