Summary[edit] Description: English: A winding river View north across the flood plain of the River Wensum. Hogweed (Heracleum sphondylium) and Great Willowherb (Epilobium hirsutum)can be seen growing on its bank. The river's name originates from the Anglo-Saxon word for 'winding'. The Wensum rises near the village of South Raynham where several streams converge. It flows northwards through Raynham Park and on towards the market town of Fakenham, where it takes on a southerly course through Great Ryburgh and then through Bintree Mill. It finally merges with the River Yare near Whitlingham in South Norfolk and is navigable from the New Mills Yard in the centre of Norwich to its confluence with the Yare. Date: 22 July 2008.
