Note
Distances are in kilometres.
Waterway distances are shown, not footpath distances.
When using imperial units, it is normal to use statute miles (1609 m) upstream of Teddington and sea miles (1853.3 m/6080 ft) downstream from Teddington.
The following items have been included:
Crossings carrying primary roads
Crossings carrying Intercity railway lines
Locks and Bridges that have prominence in regulating the river
Other structures to identify prominent towns that have not been identified.
Non-tidal rivers that have an average discharge of more than 1 m3 /s
Canals The conversion 1 sea mile = 6080 ft was obtained by calculation from the Port of London handbook (see below). This is different to the nautical mile of 1852 m.
