Catalogue entry

This is the right half of a double-page spread continued to the right from folio 50 verso (D10960), opposite, recording the view from the north-west of Middleham, towards Middleham Bridge, looking along the River Ure to Middleham Church and Castle. It is taken from a slightly nearer viewpoint to the previous sketch across folios 49 verso–50 (D10958–D10959).
For Middleham in this sketchbook see folio 47 verso (D10954).
See Introduction and Technical notes to this sketchbook for the change of ink colour, apparently from blue to red, in the numbering of this page.
