Willy Lott's cottage is not only a beautiful example of 17th century English architecture... it is a famous art artifact. Peacefully nestled at Flatford Mill in the Dedham Vale, Suffolk, England, it was made famous by master artist, John Constable, in several of his paintings... most notably in "The Haywain". The setting today is as inspiring as it was in 1819 when Constable painted the scene that is considered one of the most famous of all English paintings. Here is a panaramic view that captures the cottage at a different time of day and view as compared to "Willy Lott's Cottage" #1.
