The millstream is fine if you are a swan.
Place Mill was mentioned in the Doomsday Book.
Walk over the River Avon twice.
There are at least four River Avons in England. This one has come from Wiltshire, through Salisbury, divided here, but reunited and united with the River Stour at Christchurch Harbour. There are River Avons all over the world perhaps? One in Christchurch New Zealand, one in Northam, Western Australia, famous for uniquely having white swans as the black swan is native to Western Australia.
Let us know if you have a River Avon or River Stour.

oh yes, the same one as you 🤣. I shan’t suggest going to the Quomps for a while…

No, even the paths on the Quomps have piles of soggy reeds, so far from the river I must have missed good photo opportunities.

Believe it or not I’m only a few hundred yards from the river, but I don’t even try to go down at this time of year. Everywhere is waterlogged from about October. But they are water meadows, after all.

I love those water meadows – in summer.

River Avon is a tautology – Avon (or Afon) in Welsh, means river!
The River River is good and high!

Which explains why there are so many Avons around!

That flooding is looking pretty dicey! I hope it doesn’t get any worse.

It could return a few millennia to the swampy area it originally was!
