Although still early in the season there are already signs of balsam growing at various places along the river. I spotted balsam in the field edge downstream from Bridge House, along the bank by the community orchard and by the open area off Meadow Mead. There's certain to be more I didn't spot. Most plants are just a few inches tall so pulling in any quantity would be back breaking work.

Also on my walk I kept a look out for rubbish in the river. The worst examples were a gas cylinder and a garden chair. There are also some fallen trees which are collecting rubbish

On a more positive note, the walk along the river was very pleasant and the bluebells were looking good!
