I hope that you will enjoy this post and be encouraged to share it.
THE WENSUM
The Wensum is the river that flows through the centre of Norwich. There are many fine sights to be seen along its banks. Here is a view looking along one bank…
You will notice a boat in this shot, here is what it looks like closer up…
Is there any information available about this riverside? You bet there is…
You may have glimpsed a stone bridge in the first picture I showed. I have a close up of the centre portion and two shots showing how the smooth waters of the Wensum reflect it back…
Here is the approach to river via Ferry Lane…
Two pub signs on opposite sides of the river provide a fine contrast – one an unusual name in a plain style and one the commonest of all English pub names in a more elaborate style…
After these signs we came to a decorative wooden seat…
Now we come to the exraordinarily named Cow Tower, one of Britain’s oldest artillery placements, dating from 1398…
Next, one for the swan fanciers…
These water lilies made for decent picture…
Two more closing shots for you, from just before we left the river for the last time…
