My #book tells of the huge #flood that swept #SouthWales, #RiverSevern & #Somerset as far as #Glastonbury. Seen by victims as a punishment from #God as in #Noah. Some churches have markers showing height of waters. Available in all formats online & physical stores.
The River Severn below Shrewsbury weir at dusk two weeks ago. The IPhone camera produced an interesting effect without using any filter.

If these eels are euthanised, it will be needless killing of a species humans fought to save. This is not conservation β itβs extinction by paperwork.

The 3rd place on my travels yesterday was Bewdley. One of only 3 places on my trip away I'd been to before and the most recent as it was only last year. The riverside cafe was shut this time so I had coffee and apple pie in Piccolo's instead #Bewdley #Worcestershire #RiverSevern

Happy Shropshire Day! π
From the rolling hills to the winding River Severn, we think this county is best experienced from the water. Whether youβre canoeing under Montford Bridge or taking in a quiet moment surrounded by nature, thereβs nowhere quite like Shropshire. π

Lovely to meet with other Rights of Rivers groups yesterday at Severn Beach. As we all join together along her banks, we form a thread of reverence and protection for our sacred river π

One day, near the village of Woolastone in the Forest of Dean, a great wurm slithered out of the River Severn. Where it went, and what it did there, is unrecorded, but hopefully it returned to the river when it was done.

Ooh lovely, Rob's #Birdoftheday is #Swans, now I do have a lot of swan photos π. All taken on the #RiverSevern in #Shrewsbury (all local mute swans).
My regular reminder when this fascinating Turner appears: you can see the new bridgeunder construction through the arch. He captured a brief moment of transition; the old state remains, partly ossified in the street pattern. #Shrewsbury #RiverSevern
The view along the River Severn to an 18th century bridge, with a church on the far bank at the right hand end of the bridge. The water is still and mirror-like, reflecting the bridge, steeple and clouds above. The bridge was rebuilt in the 20th century, re-using the original materials.
English Bridge and the United Reformed Church, #Shrewsbury. The bridge is the historic eastern route into and from the city, with the Benedictine Monastery (of #Cadfael fame, now Shrewsbury Abbey) a few hundred yards down the road to the right. #SteepleSaturday #RiverSevern #Shropshire
