More about this scene

Named after the original landowner, Justin de Cave, South Cave is a village of two halves, separated by the castle, built in 1787. Here we look east, with the castle, now a golf hotel, out of the picture at the far end of the road.

The Town Hall in the East End was established in 1796, shortly after the castle.
