Artist's Description
This is the wonderful Bourton-on-the-Water a village and civil parish in Gloucestershire, England that lies on a wide flat vale within the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The village of Bourton-on-the-Water is known for its picturesque High Street, flanked by long wide greens and the River Windrush that runs through them. The river is crossed by several low, arched stone bridges. These arched bridges lending to Bourton-on-the-Water being called the "Venice of the Cotswolds".
The earliest evidence of human activity within the Bourton-on-the-Water area was found in the Slaughter Bridge gravel-spread, where Neolithic pottery (dated c. 4000 B.C.) was discovered. Moreover exavations of the Salmonsbury Camp give evidence of almost continuous habitation through the Neolithic period, the Bronze Age and throughout England's Roman Period (c. 43 to 410 A.D.). Ancient Roman pottery and coins discovered in the village itself give clear evidence of extended Roman occupation. By...
About John Chivers
Face book fan page facebook.com/JohnChiversPhoto Hi and welcome I have always loved visual creation. I have education in photography although it was film based back in the 90's, this set up a good foundation. I returned to the Art world and sought my B.A. Hons degree from The Art's Institute at Bournemouth England. I returned to photography more out of interest for this 'new' digital technology. I Chanel my creative vision through this medium. Many Thanks John

Imagine my surprise, John, while going through your England gallery and finding you took a photo of the same house I had admired when we were in Bourton-on-the-Water in 2004! Back then, it was for sale and I wished I could buy it, but being in the country as a visitor of course that didn't happen. What a great photo and how nice to see it here again. v/f

Hi Marilyn What a great place to visit and glad you had the chance to see this remarkable location 'off ''off the beaten path'' as so many are drawn to London when there are so many other places of such incredible beauty. You may remember the small shallow river there? on this occasion the day was stunning and hot so I rolled up my jeans and had a wade in the clear water..wonderful feeling and really helped to cool me down. So very glad you popped by and very much enjoyed reading about you're adventures here. Take care, John :)
