Suffolk and Essex Stour Navigation

Made famous by John Constable's paintings, the River Stour is one of the major rivers of East Anglia. Navigable for hundreds of years, in 1705 an Act of Parliament was passed making the waterway suitable for barge traffic. This photographic volume traces the story of the river, through its years of decline and to the present day activities to restore the Stour to a navigable waterway again.
