I began my walk in Winterbourne, went through Mill Lane in Frampton Cotterell and walked along the river passed farm fields. That was one of the best parts of the walk. I saw some beautiful damsel flies and water crowfoot flowers in the river

4/5

Quite a wet river that seemed to be flowing in one direction. There were like trees and scrubs next to it and they seemed to be drinking from old fromey. I didn't see any mermaids but not to say they weren't there. They could have been hiding under rocks in some such place. Im pretty sure cat weasel lives thee too
