The central village panel is an intricate design made up of
over 130 separate pieces of embroidery. These include churches
and pubs, and examples of Sunbury's fine domestic architecture. The River Thames occupies
a central position with many river activities on and around it. Towards the top are scenes depicting the open spaces, such as
Sunbury Park and the Walled Garden, and sporting activities, including Rugby and Cricket.
The parkland, open spaces and riverside location provide a rich and varied
environment. Many embroideries of birds, mammals, flowers and
trees are interspersed throughout the panel. |
