Severn estuary near Lydney Harbour

A visit to Lydney Harbour found us looking over the Severn Estuary trying to pick out landmarks. Berkeley nuclear power station (decommissioned in 1989) was one, as was the tower and nave of Berkeley church. High on the hill behind these was a tall, slim, pointed tower - the Tyndale monument. And in the far distance above the shining sands and sinous lines of water, the towers and decks of the two Severn crossing bridges could be seen, confusingly mingled from our viewpoint, with tall pylons that carry elecricity across the estuary. It was this cluster that I made a point of interest in my composition.
