the confluence bench

That's what she calls it anyway.  

On her right is the River Ouzel which flows through the town.  Coming from the left and heading off into the distance, is the River Great Ouse.  

You'd never guess from looking at this that it's the 5th largest river in the UK, some 140-160 miles long (depending on who you ask). 

Its source is somewhere in the west of Northamptonshire and it all comes out in The Wash. Or North Sea to non-UK blippers.

Made a pleasant change from The Common.
