The River Fleet is the largest of London&#8217;s subterranean rivers, running under Fleet Street on its 4 mile journey to the River Thames. Its headwaters are two streams on Hampstead Heath, each of which was dammed into a series of ponds in the 18th century.

Legislation has been put in place to stop industrial processes using rivers as a waste disposal system and anybody causing accidental damage is liable but the aquatic habitats cannot easily be rebuilt. The Environment Agency is in charge even though they are not well armed to enforce the law. Public engagement with rivers is on the increase though, through fishing, canoeing and wild swimming, which is raising awareness of the ups and downs of these meandering ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.robertharding.com\/lightbox-galleries.php?id=24749&amp;gallery=River%20wildlife\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-425\" src=\"http:\/\/www.environmentaleducationproject.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/857-50468.jpg\" alt=\"A professional kayaker runs falls in Tennessee.\" width=\"350\" height=\"233\" \/><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.robertharding.com\/lightbox-galleries.php?id=24749&amp;gallery=River%20wildlife\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-423\" src=\"http:\/\/www.environmentaleducationproject.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/1113-23767.jpg\" alt=\"People bathing in the river at Krka waterfalls, Krka National Park, Dalmatia, Croatia, Europe\" width=\"343\" height=\"230\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>See more pictures of rivers <a href=\"http:\/\/www.robertharding.com\/lightbox-galleries.php?id=24749&amp;gallery=River%20wildlife\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tom Walmsley Tiny, trickling streams, meandering rivers, gushing waterfalls and vast estuaries represent just some of the diversity of our natural watercourses in the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":2713,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_vp_format_video_url":"","_vp_image_focal_point":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1195,6],"tags":[351,879,881,1015,1088,1133,1150],"class_list":["post-4045","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-environment","category-nature","tag-environment","tag-river-fleet","tag-rivers","tag-streams","tag-uk","tag-waterways","tag-wild-swimming"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
