Parks & Nature
The Lee Valley Regional Park extends some 25 miles down the valley of the River Lea (or Lee?), from Ware in the north deep into London as far as the Thames in the south, straddling the borders of Hertfordshire and Essex.
The gravel beds of the valley were left behind by retreating ice at the end of the last Ice Age 10,000 years ago. There has been massive extraction since the 1920s and this has created a huge complex of lakes and marshes in the northern part of the park, while in the south there are a number of large water supply reservoirs. Together these provide an area of open water to rival even the Norfolk Broads.
