Sowe Valley path approaching Sowe Bridge, Walsgrave, east Coventry
Hoar frost glazes the floodmeadow on a gloomy Sunday morning in January. The river flows among the vegetation on the left; the view is downstream. There is a cluster of phone masts and cabinets opposite the bus stop on Clifford Bridge Road, centre: SP3779 : Street lights and phone masts north of Sowe Bridge, Walsgrave, Coventry. Notice that the road is on an embankment or causeway, presumably out of reach of floods.
Sowe Valley, Coventry

The River Sowe rises in Bedworth, flowing south towards Coventry; it winds through the city's eastern suburbs before joining the Warwickshire Avon near Stoneleigh. The Sowe Valley Footpath follows the river for over eight miles, mostly through naturalistic green spaces. LinkExternal link
