Set in the mid-19th century, this artwork showcases an interior view of Stow Church where the less fortunate gather to receive handouts. The focal point of the image is a young child eagerly reaching out to receive a loaf of bread from a kind-hearted donor. The child's hopeful expression reflects both their need for sustenance and their gratitude for the charitable act.

Lobley skillfully captures the atmosphere of poverty and destitution prevalent during this era. The worn-out walls and dimly lit space emphasize the hardships faced by those seeking assistance at Stow Church. Through his meticulous brushwork, Lobley conveys not only the physical struggles but also highlights the resilience and strength within these marginalized communities. This evocative painting serves as a reminder of our duty to help those in need and showcases how acts of giving can bring hope amidst challenging circumstances. "The Dole, Stow Church, Lincolnshire" stands as an enduring testament to humanity's capacity for empathy and kindness even in times marked by poverty and adversity.
