Drawing, Wetheral Bridge Across the River Eden, Newcastle and Carlisle Railway, Corby Bridge, Wetheral, Cumberland, by John Wilson Carmichael, 1835.
Summertime; view of viaduct seen from the right hand bank of the River Eden. A whitewashed house nestles amongst the trees on the riverbank; a distant figure approaches along its path. To right of foreground stands a gardener? his lunch laid on the ground nearby, working with an implement beside the water's edge. Swallows skim the surfce of the water.
Carmichael executed 22 pencil drawings of the construction of the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway at the suggestion of the Rail Company.
