Transcription

No. 4 View of the bridge from the south side. This is the least accurate of all the views as they had been mending the bridge recently, and so much waste material together with rocks and derricks had been left lying around that no satisfactory view could be obtained. The hill is much higher in reality, and the house stands a little back from the brow and at this season hidden by the foliage.
