The photographer appears to be quite the centre of attraction as the ladies from the left-hand house peer over the hedge.
The Victorian school stands right on the edge of the cliff above the fishing harbour. This view shows the upper part of the village before it was altered by 20th-century developments.
This magnificent building stands right beside the road but is hidden by what is now a much taller, and thicker, hedge.

The picket fence has been extended to replace the hedging. Horningsham is a beautiful village, still retaining an almost feudal air.
