Bridget Davey (www.bridgetdavey.com) has added a photo to the pool:
In the sixteenth century the small market town of Hitchin was one of only two major Lavender growing areas in the country. At its height in the nineteenth century a hundred acres were grown around the town and it soon became renowned nationally, although the work was incredibly labour intensive. Each lavender field could continually produce abundant crops for five years before they needed to be uprooted and burned, providing a fragrant and captivating aroma that blew across the whole town.
