Course of the Lewsey Brook

Lewsey Brook is a temporal water course, supplied by surface water from farmland and the nearby Luton suburbs of Lewsey, Lewsey Farm, and Lewsey Park, that enters the channel through a culvert. During periods of heavy rain, water floods areas of the nearby Lewsey Park.[1]

Lewsey Brook enters the River Lea via the Houghton Brook (Knapps Brook) at Toddington Road in Leagrave village. The brook is most easily viewed in Lewsey Park in Luton.[2]
