My favourite place

Hertford

My favourite place in Hertford is the river Lea. I like the river Lea because part of it runs at the back of our house. We go for walks by the river all the time, there are stinging nettle plants in spring and summer. On one end we walk as far as a weir which looks like a waterfall. There’s a tree on the river bank which leans forward over the river that I like to climb on. Sometimes I like to have a go at fishing using my fishing net but I never caught a fish before although I have seen lots of fish. Dad my brother and I often go play a game called it on the river bank , Dad is always it and he chases us. There are lots of animals in the medow behind river Lea, such as horses, bird’s, deer , rabbits, and foxes. I also like to see ducks in the river. I’ve seen people canoeing in the river before also bird watching with binoculars.  Most of all I like river Lea because my house name in school is Lea!
