Description

Watercolour over pencil heightened with touches of bodycolour
17 by 27.3 cm, 6 ½ by 10 ¾ inches

This is a view looking west from the junction of Chesil St., Bar End Road, Wharf Hill and East Hill. At the bottom of Wharf Hill is the Old Dog and Duck pub which remained in business until 1922 and in 1934 the building was demolished. Beyond is the tower of Winchester College chapel beyond. The Black Boy pub, which still exists, is visible to the left with the King’s Arms pub, which closed in 2007 and is now a restaurant, to the right. A view from almost the same spot by Prosser, dated 1840, is in Winchester Museum.
