inscribed lower left: Old Union Steyning July 57.
watercolour over pencil.
24.9 by 35.9cm., 9 3/4 by 14 inches.
Provenance:
Private Collection, Norfolk.
This shows the old workhouse on Mouse Lane, Steyning. The building still exists as privately owned cottages.
This watercolour shows the roof partly thatched and partly tiled (Stark's inscription `Chaume' is another word for `thatch') whereas a photo taken in the early 1900s shows it all tiled, as it is still today.
Steyning is five miles north-west of Shoreham in West Sussex.
