A Boater, complete with stylish hat, messes about on the Worcester & Birmingham Canal on the afternoon of Saturday 17 April 2021. He is oblivious to the passing of GWR Class 800 set (800001 at the rear) behind him, on an ECS move from Worcester Foregate Street (left) to Worcester Back Road. Colin Gifford photographed this bridge in the 1960's, but he did not have to put up with the rampant vegetational encroachment of the 2020's.
