Willows on the Wensum



Now spring has finally arrived there are some very  green and scenic views near to home. The ancient and senile river Wensum winds slowly through Norfolk entering Norwich just a mile or two from my door-step.

    Now, that is lovely. Are those Lombardy poplars? Never mind, I love weeping willows. A sweet, placid river.

    Teegee is right, it is lovely. It really still is a green and pleasant land. That's a nice picture, too.

    I believe they are Lombardy poplars. The word 'Wensum' apparently derives from the old Saxon meaning of 'Winsome'.
