Notes
This sequence of images is designed to introduce the garden at Langley – particularly to give some information about its history. By asking whether things have got better over time it touches on the concept of fallenness. At the end it takes the history right back to the beginning of time – a theme that will be touch on in the last of the four picture sequences, ‘Spring’.
As teachers and pupils are probably not familiar either with the Allendale area, with the lead mining industry which once dominated the area, the following notes go into more detail about the background of the pictures than in subsequent sequences.
