Looking Down, Brockweir.

Brockweir is a small village on the eastern bank of the River Wye, within the Forest of Dean. For centuries it had a thriving shipbuilding, fitting-out and repair industry. Brockweir was the highest point reached by a normal tide on the Wye, and a key transhipment point where the cargoes of sea-going ships were transferred onto barges to be sent upstream, and the products of Herefordshire and the Forest of Dean were sent back to Bristol and beyond.
