Sadly, the intricately carved lintel and arch over the main doorway above the steps have been obscured here by ivy. Despite this, they have remained remarkably well
The hatch cover of the square-rigged wherry 'Widgeon' has been lifted away in sections for its cargo of planks to be offloaded - they are stacked neatly under the stone arches of the mill.
In the foreground stands the arch of the Conservative Club, with the solid brick-built Cambridge Hotel next door.The honey-pot style telegraph poles carry lines to the surrounding buildings.
