7th February, we hop on a bus to Norwich. Although Norwich is Norfolk’s County Town, it’s actually a city (it has a cathedral)
City Hall: 7th February 2022
Norwich has some fine old buildings…
Guildhall: 7th February 2022
St Peter Mancroft: 7th February 2022
But much as I love this city, our destination is Costessey on the River Tud… which is more of a stream… we’re walking there along Marriotts Way

On the Wensum… swans, always…

Alongside it, meadows that this time of year are frequently flooded

The Tud is a tributary of the Wensum…

I grew up here so I admit I am biased. Yet the Tud is [quote] “And outstanding example of a chalkland river”

For years I’ve told myself, “One day I’m going to explore the place where this river rises.” One day I might, but for now this is where we leave the Tud. We’re heading now to Costessey Woods… but those photos must wait till next week
Hope you enjoyed
