Newton Park (West) consists of open space either side of The Roxbourne river which was left when the adjacent post-war council housing was built. The Roxbourne, which is its main feature, is also known as the eastern arm of the Yeading Brook. It rises near North Harrow and converges with the Yeading Brook in Ruislip on the southern side of Western Avenue. This in turn flows into the River Crane which reaches the Thames at Isleworth. See http://www.londonslostrivers.com/yeading-brook.html for more information and photographs of The Roxbourne. In this view from the entrance in Malvern Avenue, The Roxbourne is on the left. The view in the other direction to the park entrance with the Parish Church of St Andrew Roxbourne opposite can be seen at http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4907411
