      Thank you Sophie. Glad that you enjoyed the video. The River Itchen is such a pretty river to walk along for sure - particularly in the Summer!

    Only just found this walk and brings back my childhood memory of charity walks from Southampton to Winchester along the itchen navigation in the 70s….especially the hot summer of 76…..thanks for the lovely memories and a bit of the history along the way….👍👍

    Thanks again Dave - just to let you know that I'm wanting to enter the Elmbridge Writing Competition 2025 and the theme is "The River". Having walked along the Itchen and knowing that John Keats was inspired by the meadows and river to write "To Autumn" on 19 September in1819, I'm doing some research. I was particularly interested in the name of the bright green, long, fine hair-like tresses that flow with the river. Also the vegetation that grows along the river bank. I love your documentaries, so good for the soul! Kind regards, Andrew

    Another great video Dave and Logan where you were stood by the entrance to the retirement village just up the hill to the left was an old RMC quarry that’s now had houses built on it

      Thank you. There certainly seems to have been a fair bit of new development at the top of Church Road (western side) that is for sure!

      I think the Itchen is one of my favourite rivers.

    Another wonderful walk Dave & Logan! Couldn't believe just how clear the water of the Itchen was - pristine!!! Bishopstoke looked like a beautiful village. Gorgeous old church! Would love to see more!

      I think that the Itchen is one of my favourite "Hampshire Chalk Stream" rivers. Thanks for watching.

    Thank you, enjoyed that! Looks like the river Itchen could be a good river for fishing. I will definately check that out. Look forward to doing the walk at some stage next year.

    • @DaveFord
      @DaveFord  4 года назад +1

      Yes it is a great river for trout. Indeed I was filming yesterday on the same river but much further North at Itchen Stoke & managed to get some footage of a chap fly fishing!

    This is the other piece of the Itchen navigation I have personally walked. Seeing your video reminded me of that beautiful sunny day when I too, followed the route. The old broken locks with the water cascading through. The never ending bridges to cross your film captured it to a tee. That’s also the first time I’ve seen Logan in water above his ankles! It must have been very hot.

    • @DaveFord

      Logan loves a "paddle" in the water but isn't that keen on "all out" swimming!

  • @wendingourway

    It is grand to have such lovely countryside to take a good 'ol meander through...always a little bit better too to have water nearby...dropping in from Nova Scotia and a relatively new sub...take good care and have yourself a great weekend...and give Logan a nice treat...our pups are truly special...

      Thank you. Welcome to the channel. Hope you enjoy the future walks. Logan is pleased that he has another fan!
