The middle of the Three Rivers
Looking towards the sluice at Keadby. It gets difficult trying to work out which drain is which but I think this is the River Torne.

"Three Rivers"
Viewed from above the River Trent.
Basically the rivers are the Don, Idle and Torne, though a lot of remodelling took place in order to arrive at this configuration. To understand it you have to study the history of the Isle of Axholme, and of Hatfield Chase and the River Torne. The map of drains in this area resembles the map of the London Underground, but is far more complex.
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Torne and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hatfield_Chase :
"Hatfield Chase is a low-lying area in South Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire, England, which was often flooded. It was a royal hunting ground until Charles I appointed the Dutch engineer Cornelius Vermuyden to drain it in 1626. The work involved the re-routing of the Rivers Don, Idle and Torne, and the construction of drainage channels."

This follows the alignment of the railway prior to its move slightly to the north to access the King George V Bridge over the Trent (opened in 1916).
