Timeline
15:38
Grab a drink at The Britannia. The front deck overlooks the river, giving you a preview of the view to come. Check that it is open before you go, as hours vary by day.
16:03
Walk up the river to St Catherine's Chapel. This ruined chapel is a short stroll from the town centre and sits perfectly positioned to catch the evening light.
16:23
Watch the sun set toward the SW. The golden light around 15:26 will wash over the ruins and the water before the sun dips below the horizon at 16:23.
16:53
End the evening at The Weyside. Head back toward the town centre and enjoy the nice outside deck that stretches right out next to the river.
Local tip
The Weyside has railings at the edge of its deck for safety, so you can lean in close to the water without worry.
