This image depicts a serene riverside scene. In the foreground, there's tall grass and some wildflowers on what appears to be an embankment leading down to calm waters. A wooden rowboat with oars is visible in this area, resting against the bank or tied up near it.

In the middle ground, we see several boats navigating a river; one notably large sailboat with its sails unfurled stands out prominently as it travels along the waterway away from the viewer's perspective towards some buildings and trees further ahead. The sailing vessel appears to be moving through calm waters, suggesting that this might not be high tide.

The background features more natural scenery including a lush green landscape dotted with various plants and bushes. There is also a visible fence or gate on the far right side of the frame, which looks like it's made from wooden materials tied together by some rope-like material for support.

In terms of architecture, there are several buildings in view that could potentially be farm structures given their rural setting. Among them stands an old red brick building with what appears to be a chimney or stack on top and another larger structure possibly being a barn or stable based upon its size relative to the other smaller outbuildings scattered around.

Overall, this image evokes a sense of peaceful countryside life in England during early 19th-century times.

#Belaugh today

Long grass among the grave stones in the village churchyard at the end of a long hot day, golden glow from low sun

'Judith M' river #Bure at #Belaugh 26/4

Classic wooden Broads cruiser on a wooded river with mixed green trees and golden reed, black thatched boathouse and a greylag goose making its way across river, overcast

The 'Death And Glory' at #Belaugh boatyard this morning... Joe, Bill and Pete presumably doing some scraping and cleaning in exchange for someone sorting their engine*

Black painted clinker rowing boat with crude wooden cabin, green painted flower pot chimney and mast, still soldiering on 40 years after the TV programme alongside at Belaugh's splendidly traditional and also still soldiering on boatyard. Freeman cruiser to the left also named after one of the boats in the books

I don't seem to have mentioned the #Shopping #Trip to #Wroxham back in #January. In truth it was just an excuse to take the #boat out again. But I have now written up the log at: https://gregafloat.org.uk/safari/240129shopping.php

It started with #SundayLunch taken aboard, "Singing the Blues", included a #game (and a purchase!), pondering the curious case of the #BusShelter" under a #railway #viaduct and a walk around the village of #Belaugh.

Tantrix a game similar to dominies except that the tiles are hexagonal; and rather than spots a haver a number of coloured line which have to be matched

A structure rather like a simple bus shelter but sited on a footpath under a railway viaduct.

The porch of the church of St Peter in Belaugh, Norfolk, no longer regularly used for services but open to visitors for prayer.
