Default The Lost Rivers of London

By Nicholas Barton, first written in 1962 with copies of different editions available around £5.00.

There is currently an article running on The Caught by the River site on this book and it has attracted my attention.
Don't know the book but would like to hear from anyone who has read it and would like to know what they thought.

Thanks in advance.

Sounds interesting if it is what it sounds like - I found the London episode of Charles Rangeley-Wilson's The Accidental Angler fascinating.

It's really good, only read snippets. The lost river Crickle that is a tributary of the River Brent, runs under the ground at the back of my parents garden. I twas buried when the area of Mapesbury was built when the Metropolitain line went in.

Really fascinating wasn't it? some prolific trout fishing in the New River, including that record trout at the time. Even now, on the odd occasion I end up walking by the Thames in London when down for meetings I find myself looking at the river and imagine all the change it has witnessed going on around it, including the old London Bridge, that must really have been an increadible sight.
