Bridge at Chester

Summary

View of a multiple arched bridge spanning a river. A figure mounted on horse back and a figure on foot travel across the bridge. There is a building in the middle ground to the far right and a church tower with a weather vane seen beyond the bridge to the left. Two figures sat by a boulder in the foreground to the right look out across the water upon which a masted boat is sailing.
