The Silk Stream begins in Burnt Oak at the confluence of the Edgware Brook and Deans Brook which unite to become The Silk Stream. This in turn is a tributary of the River Brent, which it joins at the Brent Reservoir. This view is immediately upstream of the Brent Reservoir seen from Silk Bridge which is where the Roman road Watling Street crosses the Silk Stream. Looking upstream the river is almost lost under the vegetation. For more information and pictures of the Silk Stream see http://www.londonslostrivers.com/the-silk-stream.html
