Title
L2966 - Agricultural worker with a scythe
Description
L2966 - Newton's relentless search for interesting subjects often took him away from the railway's construction. This agricultural labourer, a rather gruff looking gentleman, has paused with his scythe to pose for the camera in a ridge and furrow field. Evidence suggests that the windmill in the background is Hellidon windmill.

L2966 - Newton's relentless search for interesting subjects often took him away from the railway's construction. This agricultural labourer, a rather gruff looking gentleman, has paused with his scythe to pose for the camera in a ridge and furrow field. Sadly, despite the presence of the windmill in the background, it is not known where the picture was taken.
