Painting, watercolour, Rockcliffe Old Church, St Mary's Church? Rockcliffe, Cumberland, by William Henry Nutter, 1843.
Autumn; Rockcliffe church and its graveyard stand on a hillock in centre of composition to right of which a stream flows into the estuary beyond. To left, the lone figure of a man dressed in black stands in contemplation of a grave bounded by slender iron railings. To the left of the church a number of houses stand, their chimneys smoking.
