The Longford River emerges from under Southern Perimeter Road
This is The Longford River and out of sight on the right is the Duke of Northumberland's River - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4161185 To the south of Heathrow Airport and its Southern Perimeter Road, the two waterways run parallel and it is possible to follow a track between them. Here they are known as the Twin Rivers.
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.
The 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.
They have followed the north side of the Southern Perimeter Road of Heathrow Airport before passing under the road and emerging here to follow the southern side as far as the Great South-West Road (A30).

Slipway, Duke of Northumberland's River
The Duke of Northumberland's River is an artificial cut which diverted water from the River Colne to augment the River Crane which used to run a lot of mills.
It isn't navigable, so I'm not sure what this slipway is for. You could canoe on it, I suppose.
