Jumpers: playing field alongside the Stour

Image: © Chris Downer Taken: 31 Jul 2009

This bench provides a view along/across the river Stour, just out of picture to the right. The field is partially in the parishes of Christchurch and Hurn – although the boundary follows the river, here it diverts and does a loop around the field suggesting that the river had a more meandering course in years gone by. The rather amusing plaque is in memory of Keith Woolnough, 4.1.1940 to 20.12.1999 – Gone Fishing!
