17th February 2024. Was it to rain? Or not? Forecasts were undecided. Regardless, we hopped on the bus to Norwich. We’re walking the first part of Marriott’s Way. Please join us…

Marriott’s Way begins in Norwich, at St Crispin’s Bridge. And here we’re greeted with catkins and blossoms. The day looks promising.

A detour off the Way takes us through a small wet woodland. Lovely and muddy!

While to our right is an industrialised area, to our left are flood meadows, now become a nature reserve…

Bridge over the river Wensum allows a fair shot at the flooding. There should be a river bank here, deep in nettles and reeds!

This bridge marks the boundary between city and county and is a good place to stop. More photos next week from this walk. See you then…

Thank you for an interesting walk Crispina, I love bridges and I often find the juxtaposition of industrial areas with nature has its own type of beauty.

My daughter thinks I’m weird cos I take photos of industrial installations… but it’s usually as a backdrop to nature. I particularly like agricultural forms
