In the foreground, we can see the White House and High House standing proudly against the backdrop of Hill Foot. These grand buildings exude elegance and charm, reflecting the architectural style of that era. As our gaze wanders further into the frame, we are drawn to the Limerick Wheel spinning gracefully along the River Loxley. This water-powered marvel was undoubtedly a significant part of daily life for locals at that time. The rivers Dun (Don) and Limbrick also make an appearance, adding their own unique touch to this scenic landscape. The photograph captures more than just buildings; it encapsulates history itself. We catch glimpses of Barracks, Cuthbert Bank Wood, Rawson Spring wood, and Sand Bank Wear (weir), all contributing to Owlerton's rich tapestry.
