Summary

The walls of Bolton Abbey, partially obscured by trees, stand upon a plateau and overlook a meandering river below; the steep river banks are covered with dense growth. In the foreground, as the river snakes from the left, a herd of cattle stand at the water's edge and in the shallows to drink.
