Looking north from Radford Bridge (footbridge). The flood plain meadows by the River Penk here are open for public use, and are an attractive well maintained facility. The Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal passes through the trees by the right edge of the image. Bright evening sunlight seems to accentuate the early summer colours. The River Penk rises in Tettenhall Wood near Wolverhampton. It flows through Coven and Penkridge, joining the River Sow east of Stafford, (about a mile ahead). Almost its whole course is within the county of Staffordshire. The River Penk is 22 miles (36km) in length.
