Camber is a village and civil parish in the Rother district, English county of East Sussex, three miles south-east of Rye. The village is located behind the sand dunes that occupy the estuary of the River Rother, where the seaside settlement of Camber Sands is situated.

6. Bodiam Castle Bodiam
Bodiam Castle is a 14th-century moated castle near Robertsbridge in East Sussex, England. It was built in 1385 by Sir Edward Dalyngrigge, a former knight of Edward III, with the permission of Richard II, ostensibly to defend the area against French invasion during the Hundred Years' War. Of quadrangular plan, Bodiam Castle has no keep, having its various chambers built around the outer defensive walls and inner courts.

Evesham River Festival 2010

The River Boat Festival takes place at Evesham, Worcestershire which is built around an oxbow meander of the River Avon. Over the last 25 years the festival has become very much part of the town's calendar. Some 10,000 spectators attended this year's festival from Evesham and much further afield. A number of the committee are retiring this year including the chairman, Hazel Hanlon but let's hope that the event will carry on for many years to come. This video is no substitute for attending the event and experiencing the atmosphere.
