Picture 01 - On the Bure.

ON THE BURE. The River Bure is worthy of all the praise which has been lavished upon it, for at every bend of its sinuous course from Wroxham to Yarmouth, a picture worthy of the time and skill of the artist is presented. At one point, a beautiful stretch of river, with cattle lazily browsing in the meadows on either side, meets the eye; at another, a picturesque view with glimpses of the shimmering water is seen through a group of overhanging trees, their rich foliage reflecting in the watery mirror. Then the characteristic eel-fisher’s cabin will be met, for eel-catching with nets spread from shore to shore is quite an industry on the River Bure.
