Note

  1. Distances are in kilometres.
  2. Waterway distances are shown, not towpath distances.
  3. If using imperial units convention would be to use statute miles (1609 m) upstream of Teddington
    and sea miles (1853.3 m/6080 ft) downstream from Teddington.
  4. North then south is used for opposing places in the case of bridges.

The following items have been included:

  • Crossings carrying primary roads
  • Crossings carrying former British Rail railway lines.
  • The East London Line and District Line.
  • Locks and bridges that have prominence in regulating the river
  • Other structures to identify prominent towns that have not been identified.
  • Non-tidal rivers that have an average discharge of more than 1 m3/s
  • Canals

The conversion 1 sea mile = 6080 ft was obtained by calculation from the Port of London handbook (see below). This is different to the nautical mile of 1852 m.


This is a route-map template for a UK waterway.

Note: Per consensus and convention, most route-map templates are used in a single article in order to separate their complex and fragile syntax from normal article wikitext. See these discussions [1],[2] for more information.

Suitable instructions belong here – please add to {{UK-waterway-routemap}}.

For finding bridge numbers, canalplan.org.uk may be useful.
