Diegetic Sound
The creaking of the floorboards in the old house symbolises that the setting is old and poor as the construction is falling apart and hasn't been replaced.

The folk music used in the scene represents the geographical are as it is traditional English music.

Props
The use of horse and carriage, as well as the wheel barrow represents the time period that the film is based in because these are not modern day technologies and are rarely seen in this era.
