A south-facing view through the double arches of Victoria Bridge in Bath. Most of the stone is light, though the caps over the arches are dark. There are 3 poles set into the ground on either end of the short span, presumably to keep it for pedestrians and cyclists only. The small, flat cobblestones are grey and look modern.

You can almost hear the echoing 'clip clop' of horses' hooves as you cross Victoria Bridge in Bath.

Decorated Viking stirrup* found in the #RiverAvon at #Chippenham, now in the town museum. Chip is where Guthrum the Dane surprised Alfred of Wessex in 878, with legendary consequences. #FindsFriday

*If this isn't a what3words reference, it should be. Or a racehorse name.

A very blue landscape (no filter!) looking straight down a river. Low-rise modern buildings dominate on the right, bridges and 19th century industrial building are ahead, and a train is arriving at a platform on the left. The west end of Bath Spa railway station's platform #2 is on a bridge over the River Avon. Bath, UK. Photo by Gearóid Burke.

In 1924, the SS Ettrick ran aground on the River Avon and capsized overnight. By morning, locals lined the banks, scavenging tobacco, sweets, and boots from the wreck.

A female Banded Demoiselle lies on her side on the surface of a river, partly submerged, probing beneath the water for suitable vegetation into which to lay her eggs. She is a large, metallic green damselfly with green wings. Her male partner, who is dark metallic blue with a broad blue band across his wings, is standing on top of her partly-submerged body to ensure that no other male can seize and mate with her before she has laid the eggs he fertilized.

An idyllic setting beside a river. We're on a low bank of lawn a few metres back from the edge of a slow-moving river a dozen or so metres wide that enters from the left of view and curves away to the right where it meets a low stone bridge with a couple of arches underneath. Some tall trunks of trees are directly ahead of us but without many branches low down they don't obscure the view over the water or to the bank opposite. There are leafier, smaller trees on the far bank, light green against the deep blue of the clear sky. On the lawn in front of us there are shadows of other tall, largely leafless trees casting skeletal shapes. A couple of people are sat on a park bench to the far right of view near the edge of the river. It feels warm and quiet, very peaceful.

Photo theme: On the river.

This is the River Avon where it passes just to the south of Salisbury and this was taken from the hotel grounds where we spent a long weekend a few years back to explore the area. We could walk from our room […]

An Emperor dragonfly hangs from a dock plant, which is untidy and running to seed. He is a large dragonfly, with a pale face, blue-green eyes, a green thorax and a blue abdomen with a broad black line running down the centre. The blue of his eyes and abdomen contrasts with the brown leaves and seeds of the plant. In the background of the image, behind the dock, is diffuse greenery.

Early morning scene at the riverside. Former industrial buildings are reflected in the unusually calm and smooth River Avon. Camden Mill was a steam-powered flour mill and the red-brick building was a corset factory. Both are now office buildings. Bath, UK. Photo by Gearóid Burke.

Warm dawn light illuminates a brick facade with five arches. To the left, a redbrick 19th-century factory building. On the right, a 20th-century industrial building in corrugated metal. In the foreground, the metal railing and wooden deck of a 21st-century pedestrian bridge cuts in at an angle. Quays Bridge, Bath, UK. Photo by Gearóid Burke.

Early morning scene at the riverside. On the right, a paved path with black metal guardrail. On the left, a 19th century red-brick industrial building — the former Bayer stay (corset) factory. Further along are modern office/apartment buildings and a new pedestrian bridge spanning the River Avon. Bath, UK. Photo by Gearóid Burke.
