Notes:	Many are the pleasant and busy towns and villages which look forth upon [the River Severn at the Bristol channel] in its salted and merged condition and know it not. Of these, Clevedon alone may be indicated, for Tennyson’s sake, in his familiar tribute to our stream; for in this bright and growing health-resort for Bristol’s workers Arthur Hallam, his friend, lies buried: “The Danube to the Severn gave The darken’d heart that beat no more: They laid him by the pleasant shore, And in the hearing of the wave. “There twice a day the Severn fills, The salt sea water passing by; And hishes half the babbling Wye, And makes a silence in the hills.” ” (p. 356)
