Description:Watercolour painting by John Louis Petit (1801-1868).
On the right can be seen the Broad Eye windmill. The mill was built in 1796 using stones taken from the Old Town Hall (now replaced by the Shire Hall).
In 1845 steam power was introduced and the sails were removed in the 1890s, after the mill had stopped working. The building was then used as a warehouse for grain and, later, by James Marsh, a mineral water manufacturer.
In the 1940s the building stood empty and fell into a decline; in 1951 the windmill was declared a Grade II listed building.
On the left is St. Mary's Church in the town centre. The church was restored by Sir George Gilbert Scott 1841 - 1844.
