The Lower Parting

The title needs some explanation...the River Severn divides into two channels at Gloucester and forms an island - Alney Island - now a nature reserve. It was once crossed by a railway and was also used for growing willow for basket making, now the disused railway line forms a path across the reserve and it’s a peaceful spot, even though it’s very close to the city.
