Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, filled with charming illustrations, traces the course of the River Wandle from its source in Croydon to its confluence with the River Thames. Along the way, the author recounts the social, economic, industrial, and environmental history of the river and its environs. The book sheds new light on the vital role the Wandle has played in Surrey's past, supporting a succession of industries and creating a landscape rich in history and natural beauty. The book also explores how this once-pristine river has suffered from pollution and encroaching urban development over the centuries, and how efforts are being made to restore it to its former glory. However, the Wandle, its ecosystem and the industries it supports, continue to face environmental challenges today. The author's evocative and accessible prose captures the enduring fascination of this iconic waterway, making this book a must-read for anyone interested in the history, environment, and hidden gems of Surrey.
