SO5200 : Tranquil Wye, Tintern

taken 10 years ago, near to Tintern, Monmouthshire/Sir Fynwy, Wales

Tranquil Wye, Tintern
Tranquil Wye, Tintern
Viewed from the edge of the A466 Main Road. The Wye here is not always this benign. Despite Tintern being 6 miles (c10km) upstream from the mouth of the river at Chepstow, the tidal range here is up to 20 feet, so Tintern is liable to tidal flooding. The muddy bank on the right side of the river is evidence of a recent high tide.
