The view downstream is from the footbridge that is reached from Fordbridge Road. There are footpaths on each side of the river. A riffle shows that the Cole is flowing away from the camera. There is a gravelly beach in the foreground. Downstream a glimpse of brown soil suggests recent erosion on the outside of a bend.
