In the distance a line of hills rises from the sea and increases gradually in elevation towards the right. A coast road, starting from the foot of the hills, skirts a little bay and climbs a steep slope to the front. Near the top, on the left, stand two cottages. In front of the farther one is a woman stooping ; a man and a woman stand conversing across a cart in the middle of the road. The nearest cottage has two chimney-pots, with a slight indication of a third. The line of hills ends on the right 48 mm from the bottom of the plate.
