September 24, 2025, Bridge at Cholmondeston Lock

A wonderful example of a lock bridge, and a great spot for a BAAB (bike against a bridge) photo. It's peaceful and picturesque, you might even spot a canal boat or two.

"My pocket money goes towards buying secondhand books. I love the dry, musty smell of old books, the feel of the silky paper between my fingers. In any case, the book collection in my room is growing, and I find nothing makes a home feel more homely. Sometimes I feel a sense of elation just holding a book in my hands." (Deborah Crombie in "The Lost Poem")
