The Avon, from Castle Hill, looking North towards Woodgreen
The beautiful stretch of river from South Charford to Fordingbridge remains to be documented on this website.
Here, the river meanders though the mill at Breamore, past the escarpment that rises to Godshill enclosure, then west to the A338 at Burgate, back South East through Sandy Balls holiday park and, West again, through Fordingbridge.
The Avon at Fordingbridge historically played a central role in the life of the town community, and hosted the annual 'Hampshire Henley' regatta.
Today, very few are provided the opportunity to experience the tranquility, beauty and wildlife of the river.
