Duke of Northumberland's River
An artificial cut from River Colne to River Crane, originally built in the 16th century to augment the water supply for the Duke's mills. The building of Heathrow Airport required considerable diversion, but here it remains on the original route. Looking downstream.

The Duke of Northumberland River at The Two Bridges
This western section of the Duke of Northumberland's River was constructed during the reign of King Henry VIIIth. It takes water from the River Colne and was designed to supplement the flow to existing mills. Here it is seen from Hatton Road.
The Two Bridges is so-named because Hatton Road also crosses the Longford River just to the right of here. Charles I ordered the construction of the totally artificial watercourse known as the Longford River to carry water from the River Colne to the water features in Bushy Park and then on to the Long Water in Home Park at Hampton Court. The Longford River opened in 1638.
To the west of the A30 and south of Heathrow Airport and its Southern Perimeter Road, the two waterways run parallel and it is possible to follow a track between them. There they are known as the Twin Rivers.

Longford River in East Bedfont
The Longford River is an artificial watercourse, built in 1638 on the instructions of King Charles I, and about 12 miles or about 19 kilometres long, that takes water off the River Colne and diverts it to provide a supply to Hampton Court Gardens. The river has had several different names in the past. For example the 1895 Ordnance Survey map refers to it as "Queen's or Cardinal's River".
This is the view looking downstream from the Hatton Road bridge. Because there is a bridge over another artificial watercourse, The Duke of Northumberland's River, a very short distance, about 30 metres, to the north, the pair of bridges are known as Two Bridges.

The Longford River at Two Bridges
Two Bridges because here Hatton Road crosses in quick succession both the Longford River and the older Duke of Northumberland's River. The Longford River is a 17th century artificial cut to supply Hampton Court with water from the River Crane.
