I would have said Teme but SF beat me to it so I'll say Lugg instead but I suspect that it's too big to be the Lugg in the upper reaches. From the style of building on the bank and the weir this river has to be in the Marches rather than Wales.

I reckon SF has it spot on - I would say it's the Ludlow weir on the River Teme at the top of the photo...

The two photographs by Gizmo above.

My guess is that B is the Loughour.

A - perhaps the Cothi or the Tawe?
