This sketch shows a quiet countryside scene. A small stream runs across the bottom, with a wooden bridge over it. On the left, a lone tree stands near a fence. In the distance, a line of trees and a few buildings sit under a pale sky. The artist wrote "From the Mill, Chilham 1846" in the corner. That tells us this is a real place, not just made up.
