More about this scene

Reedham, in the broad, silent expanses of the Yare valley, was once a thriving North sea port. The chain ferry pictured offers the only passage across the Yare between Norwich and Yarmouth. Windmills are dotted among the abundant reedbeds, from which the village gained its name.
