More about this scene

This photograph was taken outside the 13th-century church of St Dubricius, and shows Isaac Burgess standing beside a horse and trap outside his bakery. The family firm continued in business until 1983, when it sold out to Stenner's. They owned the greengrocer's shop next door, and having amalgamated the two premises, continue as the village bakers.
