More about this scene
This strong two-arched stone bridge spans the River Ribble at Gisburn. Note the two farm carts with shafts designed for sturdy horses to the right of the yeoman farmer's dwelling. In this typically well-wooded river scene, we can see lavish use of stone in walls and bridge that could stand for centuries. A travelling mole catcher, Dick Cooper, lived in Gisburn; he covered the Ribble Valley and the Fylde, and walked the turnpike road between Blacko and Gisburn.
