Frederick and Augusta, Prince and Princess of Wales, descending from a carriage at the shore of Virginia Water, where the Royal Barge waits. They are being guided by his brother, William, Duke of Cumberland, who was Ranger of the Park. From the folio 'Eight Views of Windsor Great Park' by Thomas Sandby (1723-98), engraved by his younger brother Paul (1731-1809). Thomas Sandby had been private secretary and draughtsman to Cimberland since 1743, and when Cumberland was made Ranger Thomas was made his deputy and invited Paul to live with him. While Thomas laid out improvements to the Park, including the creation of Virginia Water from a stream, he drew these eight scenes which Paul then engraved. In this case examination of the preparatory drawing (now in the British Museum) has led experts to believe Paul drew the figures. The series was reissued by Boydell in 1772 with his address added.

A portrait of Elizabeth Woodcock, who survived being trapped in a snowdrift for eight days. Mrs Elizabeth Woodcock, a resident of Impington and wife of Daniel Woodcock, went to Cambridge market on Saturday 2nd February 1799. She sold her eggs and butter and started to return home. Her last stopping place was The Three Tuns at the top of Castle Hill. Heavy falls of snow had already occurred when she replenished her flask with brandy and left for home on her horse. She was thrown from her horse in the fields to the east of Impington, and was unable to remount. Shaken and numbed with cold she took shelter under a hawthorn hedge. The snow drifted over her until she was completely covered. Early next morning she heard the church bells ringing for morning service. She also heard the voices of passers-by in the distance, but was unable to attract attention. On the Monday she made a hole in the snow above her and made a flag of her red handkerchief which she tied on a stick. This flag led to her discovery but not till another week had passed. On the following Sunday, the Parish Clerk of Impington, William Munsey, saw the flag while out walking, discovered Mrs Woodcock, got help, and rescued her. She had been buried under the snow for eight days, and was conscious most of the time. She heard a church clock striking the hours, and the church bells on two successive Sundays. After her rescue, tragically she did not survive long. She was taken ill and died on 24th July at the age of 43.
