Chris Tally Evans evokes the sights and sounds of the River Wye as it flows yards from his garden in Rhayader in Mid-Wales.

Chris walks the river banks and discovers how important the river has been to the economy of the town of Rhayader - legally and not so legally.

With stories of tanneries, mills, flannel works, electricity and poaching.
