View from the other side
@ Sunday, 02. Sep, 2007 – 18:10:38
My mate MenoMama asked in my Brockweir post if I'd take a piccy from the other end of the bridge, looking out of Brockweir and as I already have the image I promised to post it...
This is the view you'd see when leaving Brockweir and crossing the River Wye.

A life with the river
@ Sunday, 02. Sep, 2007 – 15:30:16
People have accessed the River Wye around Brockweir for centuries; a casual walk along the river bank reveals many a personal weir or jetty.
While some may be utilised by local fisher-folk I doubt many are still used for their original purpose.
This stone boat-house appears to be a storage facility these days; the ramp leading down to the river is now overgrown.
I can’t help but wonder what type of craft entered and exited through these doors...

Brockweir revisited
@ Sunday, 02. Sep, 2007 – 09:31:05
A few days back I posted a couple of photographs of the bridge at Brockweir on a misty morning; during the day I'll be posting new images of Brockweir and I want to start with a couple of alternative photos of the bridge.
No mist on this occasion, although a tad overcast.
The River Wye is tidal to just beyond Brockweir and was once the main 'highway' between Chepstow and Hereford.
