More about this scene
The parkland of 18th-century Welton Place sweeps south to the north bank of the Grand Union Canal, in its cutting leading to the east portal of the Braunston Tunnel. East of the park is the village, a figure of eight of winding lanes. This view looks east along Ashby Road to the small green at its junction with Station Road and High Street (to the right). The whitewashed cottage is Craven Cottage and is little changed today, but 1960s housing has appeared where the tall trees previously grew on the right.
