Sheltered housing run by SKDC, Worth Court is named for Charles Worth, who came from Bourne but is known for his work in Paris where he more or less created Haut Couture. Some of his dresses are famous, such as the Peacock dress: http://www.thefashionhistorian.com/2011/08/charles-frederick-worth-and-mary-curzon.html The waterway, swollen with recent rain, in the foreground is the Bourne Eau: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourne_Eau
