Bottom Dene Erection Extension Fallen Footbridge Highlight Illustrative Mansion Paths Proposed Rebuilding Retouching Rustic Stream Turret Unite Wallaces

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph pair showcases the picturesque House Dene in Wallace's Well, circa 1904. The top image presents a tranquil scene of a low-lying stream meandering by the estate, its crystal-clear waters reflecting the verdant foliage and the craggy cliffs beyond. However, a fallen Wallace's Well, a once-iconic landmark, lies forlornly in the foreground, a testament to the passage of time. The bottom image, with its illustrative retouching, offers a tantalizing glimpse into the proposed restoration of this idyllic setting. The well, now repaired and reinstated, stands proudly in its original place, its waters once again inviting visitors to quench their thirst. A rustic footbridge, elegantly crafted from natural materials, gracefully arches over the stream, uniting the paths and allowing visitors to explore the estate with ease. Lastly, a new turret extension graces the mansion on the left, adding a touch of grandeur and charm to the already breathtaking landscape. These images offer a tantalizing glimpse into the past and the future of House Dene, inviting us to imagine the estate in its former glory and the potential for its restoration. The tranquil beauty of the scene, with its gentle stream, lush greenery, and picturesque architecture, remains a testament to the enduring allure of the English countryside.
