Where On The Broads?

[vanessan]

Seems silly to have a new topic each time so here is a thread for anyone to add a photo if they so wish. Here’s the first:

This one seems to have everyone stumped - no guesses at all?

Approaching the nature trail coming down from Wroxham.

If that's a selfie the haircut is...........different ?

I was going to say Cockshoot Broad moorings, but I think there’s some sort of tidal height measure thingy on the corner that I had in mind.

Back to the drawing board...

I haven’t got a clue really. Total guess . . . the nature trail moorings opposite Salhouse Spit.

up above wroxham bridge, wroxham village staithe maybe (the little one about a mile past the bridge)

It doesn't look like a BA mooring as the post appears to be painted white.  The back ground vegetation is relatively low so either recently cut back or not that well established.  The river looks relatively narrow and possibly not a huge tidal flow. 

So here's my contribution - probably towards the heads of either the Bure or Ant.  Don't think the Thurne though.  The only place I can think of is the opposite bank at Belaugh but I don't think they have any posts?

Mr SR would like a guess if that might be permitted. 

Wroxham Broad moorings on the Bure. Can’t think if they have any other official name.

What’s wrong with my hat? 😁

[vanessan]

No good guesses so far. ☹️

Here’s a wee bit more:

 

[Bluebell]

Dunno why, but I think it’s on the Waveney. Can’t pinpoint it though. How about warmer or colder clues?

There are some very good observations here..............

The words on the post are HO - so could be something to do with HOW Hill - perhaps the other side.  Don't think Horning and the last mooring at Horning has a bit of an inlet afterwards to catch out the unwary sailor!

Hi Liz, yes you are right now I think about it. At first glance I thought the letters were NO so thought No Mooring but of course they are HO

Spot on:

 

[vanessan]

Well done Liz. My little dog just sat staring at the heron for ages! 

[Bluebell]

Well, I was nearly right about it being on the Waveney 

[vanessan]

Yes, it’s a mill - but where?

 

[NorfolkNog]

Looks like Horsey but minus the sails!

I don’t believe it Mr Nog - you’re wrong! Still not woken up? 

[webntweb]

How Hill again?

[NorfolkNog]

I think that's Turf Fen mill. To be honest I'm struggling to think of one without sails. I thought Polkies Mill for a moment but it's not that either
