Constable's
greatest joy was painting his native Dedham Vale, the
valley of the river Stour around Dedham and East
Bergholt. Many of the scenes that Constable painted
can still be appreciated today, as can Flatford
Mill, owned by Constable's father, and Willie
Lott's Cottage
immortalised in "The Hay
Wain". Bridge Cottage, adjacent to
Flatford Mill, boasts a musem based on the artist and
his life.
