Source of the River Avon

Source of the River Avon


Yesterday morning I traced the source of the River Avon to this puddle on a farm track north of Sopworth, Wiltshire.

Sought by geographers since the dawn of time, from this mystical location the river wends its way for thousands of kilometres through the English countryside, finally emerging as a mighty torrent into the Severn Estuary at Bristol.

The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus - film review

A voyage into the mind of director Terry Gilliam -
visually beautiful, with a fractured narrative.

Essential viewing.
