Dark ale-house interior, with low wood-beamed ceiling hung with various objects and a tall fireplace to the left, with a toby jug, bear jug and two candlesticks on the mantelpiece. A group of men and women sit together smoking and drinking. To the left of the group a drunken man lecherously gropes a startled woman, in the centre a young woman sits on a man's lap with his arm about her waist, and to the right an old woman is selling oranges from a basket. Three small children and a dog play in the foreground before an old woman sitting smoking a pipe in the bottom left corner.
