I drove down to Oare Marshes with my wife so she could observe the godwits, apparently one of our feathered friends with a beak like a sculpting tool. I wandered down to Harty Ferry to have a look at Swale Creek. There was a Thames Barge moored offshore. You are looking north into the mouth of the Thames. The Essex coast is just over the horizon.

I work on the river (well, right next to it on the shoreline) and get to see one of these most days of the week. In fact we have a model of a Thames Barge in our office.
