A view of Westend Terrace, one of the three streets in this enclave on the west bank of the River Severn, the others being Westend Parade and Alney Terrace. The houses here date from the 19th century with a few more modern ones. Here also is a caravan park - the Showmen's Winter Quarters. Here from the mid 1980s until 2004 was where I lived in a second floor bedsit - some of the happiest years of my life. In one year, during floods, there were people travelling in boats along this cul de sac. The area, being so close to the Severn, is subject to repeated flooding which put me off making a return here though, sadly. Time photo taken 4.14 pm BST (British Summer Time).
