Looking downstream from the footbridge at the junction of the Uxbridge Road and Windmill Road. This stretch of the Longford River flows parallel to Windmill Road (which can be seen through the railings on the left). The Longford was one of a number of artificial water-courses - so-called 'rivers' - constructed in the London and Middlesex areas in the 17th century for purposes of water supply rather than navigation.
