Images are arranged in groups, roughly in order from the River Thames to the source.
As the photographs get further from the Lea navigation it was sometimes hard to decide which section they should be in.
Some of the images currently have uncropped edges and need some retouching to remove defects. Pictures supplied as high-res images or as prints will be cropped and retouched.
Captions and Locations
Parts of this area have changed dramatically since I took the images and the notes made while taking pictures are not always precise or clear. It was easy to get a little lost in some places, and maps were not always entirely helpful. Please let me know if you think any of the locations given are incorrect or you can add to the captions.
The selection here represents the images I find more interesting from the area, and I have other pictures taken at the same time as these. There are a few areas where I decided for the moment not to include pictures which may be added later. Please email me if you have any specific queries.
All photographs on this site arePictures are available for commercial use - please email me, for terms.
