Looking along the short tidal River Haven which connects the Wash (behind) to the docks and the River Witham (ahead). The ship making its way into the docks is Fast Sam, a 3,200-tonne cargo ship flying the Belgian flag. Commercial traffic is piloted from the Wash as only a narrow stretch of river is navigable and only at high tide.
