 | | River Wyre from Street Bridge, near Dolphinholme, Lancashire, UK, 18 July, 2004 |
 | | A flooded gravel pit, one of several in this section of the Wyre Valley, is visible through the trees on the left. |
 | | A large proportion of the river valley here was excavated for gravel; I'm not sure when, but I suspect it was in the 1960s, when the nearby M6 motorway was constructed and required aggregate. |
