More about this scene
Seen from the footbridge to the Oxfordshire bank, the eleven-arch bridge is an 18th-century one that carries a vast amount of traffic, for Sonning is in effect Reading's eastern by-pass. The Great House Hotel on the left is now much extended, and the church tower is largely concealed by more mature trees.
