Nigel Explores Evesham ….. No 4

Why, has Evesham got a monument  to a whale? …… A pithy question Nigel was determined answer, as to be honest, Evesham is an awful long way from the sea and any said whales!
IMG_1247The monument is next to the river, so Nigel imagined that, perhaps, once in historical times, a whale may have lost it’s bearings and found its way, somehow, up the River Avon to Evesham.
IMG_1242However, on reading ……..
IMG_1237…… its history became clear. 
IMG_1244….. a romantic tale, but not sadly for the deceased whales, I am afraid.
IMG_1249There is much more to Evesham than meets the eye  ….. and Nigel is proving to be an intrepid and informative explorer on our behalf.
