More about this scene

This general vista looks south to the hills above Penarth. The house, barely visible behind the thick hedgerows, is of recent construction in stucco with tiled roof. The owner seems to like his Nissen huts. Although they became widespread, they did not just develop - they were actually invented in 1930 by one Peter Nissen, a Birmingham mining engineer.
