Colne Brook: view upstream
The wider area is a patchwork of land-uses: reservoirs and other industrial sites, old gravel pits (often surrounded by woodland or scrub), with residential areas focused around old village centres. The whole is neither rural nor suburban, though 'urban fringe' would be a fair description. Heathrow and the M25 are major presences.
It isn't easy to imagine the landscape as it must have been in Napoleonic times - before the arrival of large-scale gravel extraction and (later) the huge reservoirs.
The fenced-off area on the left is - I believe - occupied by a road-haulage firm.
