Clun: autumn tree & bridge

            Stone bridge over the River Clun in the small town of Clun (South Shropshire, in the Welsh Borders region of western England), screened by a tree as its leaves fall on a partly cloudy afternoon at the end of October 2024.

This limestone bridge has been dated to 1450, although the current structure may be from the 16th century. 

Logs, branches, and other debris just above the bridge were caught by it as they were swept along in heavy rains -- possibly during Storm Ashley, which had swept through earlier in October.

The size of many a village, Clun is located within the Shropshire Hills National Landscape, which was previously known as the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).

(Historical information from Historic England’s National Heritage List for England, entry number 1054499 (“Probably C16”), and Wikipedia (with date of 1450), both last consulted 25 November 2024.)
