Thorpe St Andrew

edit

Please correct me if I'm wrong .But Thorpe St Andrew is on the Yare.Northmetpit 12:01, 29 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

The rivers join somewhere on the border between thorpe and thorpe st andrewGraemeLeggett 13:23, 29 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
The rivers join just south of the Station Yards near the old Gas terminus, Thorpe St. Andrew is actually on the Yare, the new cut is the truly navigable bit that flows parallel to the railway line. So Thorpe is on the Wensum, Thorpe St. Andrew is on the old Yare Course. You could of course argue that seeing as The Wensum is the larger river, and the Yare is the tributary, that is is the Wensum all the way to the coast, but where does that leave Yarmouth? - all at sea... wonder why it works that way round - odd.Typejunky 19:35, 01 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Bridges of Norwich

edit

Hi. After taking a look at the Bridges of York article. I was thinking of a similiar page for Norwich with links from the Wensum and Norwich articles. Your thoughts please. (Northmetpit (talk) 08:51, 9 December 2009 (UTC))Reply

I would suggest expanding the existing section in the Wensum article and adding refs, pics etc as a prelude to creating a new article. Regards Motmit (talk) 11:26, 9 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Source

edit

I have always understood the source of the Wensum to be the spring at Wensum Farm in West Rudham.

The range of documents I have checked from 1795 to 1940 all go along with this (including the OS 1st Edition which clearly identifies the spring in question). I can't find any reference for the source being in either Whissonsett or Colkirk.

Anyone wish to dispute this before I update the article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thousandthman (talkcontribs) 19:20, 8 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hi Thousandthman (talk Just checked one of my maps the source you quote appears to be a spring that feeds the River Tat close to the village of Coxford . Northmetpit (talk) 11:32, 11 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
