Another look at this attractive river. The Chew rises on the northern slopes of the Mendip Hills at Chewton Mendip, flows south to Chew Magna via Litton and the Chew Valley Lake then east through Pensford and Woollard. Acker Bilk was born in Pensford and this scene reminds me of his song "That's My Home" though the shady elm trees have long been lost to the Dutch elm disease. Thanks to Rick Crowley for pointing out the error.
