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.
