A sketch map of some lost rivers"London Before the Houses", map of pre-urban London from 1884.[1]The position of a mouth of the Effra in the 13th century.
The subterranean or underground rivers of London are or were the direct or indirect tributaries of the upper estuary of the Thames (the Tideway) that were built over during the growth of the metropolis of London. They now flow through culverts,[2] with some of them integral parts of London's sewerage system and diverted accordingly.[3]
