Of the Broad's six rivers, the Chet is the smallest and is navigable for just 3.5 miles (5.5 km). It's a tributary of the great River Yare, which it joins to the west of Reedham. The Chet flows between the market town of Loddon and the village of Chedgrave, beyond which is Hardley Flood, an expanse of tidal lagoons and reedbeds that provides an important habitat for nesting birds.

There's been a swing bridge here since Victorian times but the current Reedham Swing Bridge dates from the early 20th century. It carries the Wherry railway line across the River Yare, one of the great rivers of the Broads. Incredibly, the bridge is opened around 1,300 times in a normal year.

Reedham is a popular village situated on the lower reaches of the River Yare. Riverside is a long street running next to the Yare with benches, a pub and holiday cottages. It is also home to one of the last remaining railway swing bridges and chain ferries in the country.
