Evesham (Worcestershire) watching the rowing regatta 5/5/18

Amazingly a very hot May Bank holiday weekend afternoon, walking the banks of the River Avon whilst the Regatta was on.

The whale sculpture is the replacement for the original whalebone arch that was put in the Workman Gardens 1906, the bones were removed in 2012 because of deterioration to the point they were considered unsafe.
