De Wint exhibited two views of Kent at the Society of Painters in Water-colours in 1846, `Canterbury' (no. 37) and `Dover, from the road to Canterbury' (no. 107).

The numbering in the lower right corner suggests this drawing may have been part of the artist's studio sale at Christie's from 22-24 May 1850. Lot 264 was described as `Near Tonbridge' and was bought by Vokins for 4 guineas.
