View from the Church by B.R.Hammond
This drawing first appeared in the society's publication "Pen Sketches of Barwick-in-Elmet" by the late Bart Hammond who was a founder member of the Society.
The drawing dates from the 1980's. Bart described the scene as follows:
Emerging from the Church gates one is
facing due west, looking along a short
street called The Cross, which includes
on the right, Church Row, the Black
Swan Inn and the old shop and houses
beyond. On the left, the high wall of
old brickwork encloses the former
Rectory and Coach House gardens.
A good view of the Maypole and Cross
is seen, with Hall Tower Hill and the
Gascoigne Arms.
