Ferry Meadows Country Park

The Romans arrived in the first century (43AD), quickly establishing a fort overlooking the river, where Thorpe Wood Golf Course now is. Within a year or two of their arrival, the Romans built Ermine Street - the Roman A1 from London to York. On the south bank, where it crossed the River Nene south of Castor the Romans established the town of Durobrivae 'The bridge by the fort' and later a pottery industry and suburbs developed on the north bank.

Great set Zbigniew, in this shot the narrow boats look like they are ready for a Le-Mans start.
