Explanation:

A suggestion that this small, idyllic town has its own culture that is set in its old ways. Old fashioned and possibly inclined to backward thinking. The village is not isolated. It is only an hour's ride away from the nearest roadway but it is remote enough that it can "not be reached by the vibrations of public opinion." Raveloe is also described as an important looking village with its old church and large churchyard found in the heart of the village. It boasts of well-tended walled orchards, two or three large brick and stone houses and ornamental weathercocks.
