More about this scene

This sizeable hamlet on the Downs south of Harting has no church, but boasts some attractive flint cottages and fine scenery. There is plenty of history here: Bow Hill was a great Stone Age centre on the Downs and there is the site of a Roman villa nearby. A local mansion, Watergate House, is now demolished. The signboard of the Victoria Inn is visible to the left of the picture. The scene today is little changed.
