DescriptionThe New River, Enfield - geograph.org.uk - 235100.jpg
English: The New River, Enfield. The New River is something of a misnomer since it is neither a river nor new. It is an aqueduct built under the direction of Sir Hugh Myddleton between 1607 and 1612 to bring fresh drinking water from Chadwell and Amwell Springs near Ware about 40 miles down the Lee Valley to London. http://www.engineering-timelines.com/scripts/engineeringItem.asp?id=438 for further information. This view was taken from near the Carterhatch Lane bridge.
