Summary

[edit]
Description
English: View over Rocester, Staffordshire.

On the left are the tower and spire of St Michael's parish church.

The red brick building to the right is Tutbury Mill, a water-powered cotton mill built for Richard Arkwright in 1781-2 beside the River Dove. It has now been converted into the JCB Academy.

The white mansion part-way up the hill on the right is Barrow Hill, now a retirement home.

On the horizon are the Weaver Hills, the highest of which has a summit 371 meters above sea level.

The football game in the foreground is being played at Abbotsholme School.
