Riseley. View of the two storey thatched cottages on the northeast side of the High Street. On the end cottage, [no 61], is an advertising sign for Lyons Tea. This cottage has a lower tiled roof rather than a thatch. The well planted front gardens have a metal fencing on to the road and there are two young girls looking over the fence into the gardens. At the end of the fencing is a child in a pushchair. Further south along the High Street, there is a larger house in view - no 57. There are three people walking along the street.
