Describe the river from Wallingford to Oxfordd?
Dear Student,
Given below is the answer to your question.
The river did not seem interesting to the author, between Streatley and Wallingford. However, from Cleve there was a stretch of six and a half miles without a lock. From Wallingford up to Dorchester the neighbourhood of the river grows more hilly, varied, and picturesque. Round Clifton Hampden, the scenery of the river was beautiful. From Clifton to Culham the river banks are flat, monotonous, and uninteresting, but, after you get through Culhalm Lock the coldest and deepest lock on the river the landscape improves. At Abingdon, the river passes by the streets. There is a beautiful stretch from Abingdon to Nuneham Courteney. The author states that to understand the difficulty of the place, a person ought to be born on the water between Ifflay and Oxford. It was difficult to go straight and easily through this place. First, a person would be directed to the right and then to the left, then pushed to the middle. The journey would surely end in a smash against a college barge. Thus, the travel in the place between Ifflay and Oxford was difficult and unpredictable.
