	Wiltshire - LoveToKnow 1911
		Wiltshire is mainly in the diocese of Salisbury, but a considerable part is in that of Bristol, and small parts in those of Gloucester, Oxford and Winchester.
		In the Civil War of the 17th century Wiltshire actively supported the parliamentary cause, displaying a spirit of violent anti-Catholicism, and the efforts of the marquess of Hertford and of Lord Seymour to raise a party for the king met with vigorous resistance from the inhabitants.
		Wiltshire at this time was already reckoned among the chief of the clothing counties, the principal centres of the industry being Bradford, Malmesbury, Trowbridge, Devizes and Chippenham.

		The Warren is a wide meander in the river to the west of Hay-On-Wye.
		The bottom of the river is a bit on the silty side, its a bit on the shallow side and the proximity of the footpath means you are never short of a wisecrack or two.
		Access to the river is a bit difficult in the summer (judging by the tree trunks attached to the upper reaches of the bridge this isn't a problem in the winter!!).

	Shipton Bellinger: The River Bourne (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Since the 1950's, when extensive work was done, the river itself is normally a winter bourne, meaning that it only flows during the winter months, normally November through to April.
		In reality the river is normally full only for a few weeks in the early months of the year.
		This is, of course, highly dependant upon rain fall: the river lasted into May in 1999 and, in 2000, was very full in May and lasted well into June, offering a great deal of pleasure to many of the children in the High Street.

		There is a picture in a book of "Wiltshire of 100 years ago" in which part of Lottage Road looks like a river, with boys on stilts by the side of it, so it's by no means a modern problem.
		But most years it is quickly over as the bourne takes away the bulk of the water.
		The worst year I can remember was 1979 when the springs came up late and the bourne didn't run until March - that year some houses WERE affected as soakaways and gullies had been neglected and allowed to silt up as it hadn't happened for so long.
