Jumpers: playing field alongside the Stour
This bench provides a view along/across the river Stour, just out of picture to the right.
The field is partially in the parishes of Christchurch and Hurn – although the boundary follows the river, here it diverts and does a loop around the field suggesting that the river had a more meandering course in years gone by.
The rather amusing plaque is in memory of Keith Woolnough, 4.1.1940 to 20.12.1999 – Gone Fishing!

Jumpers: the Stour behind River Way
It is not far off nightfall now, and also starting to rain. We are looking downstream; the river reaches its journey's end in a few miles, having done more than 50 to get this far.
The river here marks the parish boundary between Christchurch and Hurn – although the boundary diverts and does a loop around the field on the left. This suggests that the river had a more meandering course in years gone by.
