London's little rivers and streams

[Maggot]

I really recommend London's Lost Rivers by Tom Bolton. It gives directions for walking a number of the Thames tributaries plus has loads of interesting information about the places you pass through and the rivers themselves.

Paul Talling does walks along lost rivers and canals, I've been on a couple, lots of interesting info on the areas.

I've done a couple of the walks by following his book, but not actually with him.

Talking also did derelict London, which is a great book and I'm told he is a really nice guy. We have just got his lost rivers as a precursor to walking some of them. Seeing maggots post above (thanks) we will get boltons book and start walking
