More about this scene

The old model petrol pump looks rather incongruous standing in front of the house doorway. On the green, which consisted of nearly two acres of land, there was once a horse pond and a maypole; the horse pond was replaced with a drinking trough for cattle. The lady looks ready to pull down the sun awnings!
