Big seawalls cutting people off from the water? This same thing could happen in London if we don't get serious about delivering the Thames Estuary 2100 Plan now! It's not just about a new Thames Barrier. London still has a chance to design good waterfronts. But time is running out. https://buff.ly/3QFKx7h

Inviting anyone interested in UK #Rivers, #Flood, #NaturalFloodManagement, #FloodDefences, #RiverRestoration to join me on a stage of this #Walk this summer: to walk & talk, to share expertise & insight. Very keen to meet river/flood professionals & local communities/schools along the route. Spread the word. Dates yet to be confirmed. #Lincolnshire #Nottinghamshire #Leicestershire #Warwickshire #Worcestershire #Gloucestershire. #RiverTrent #RiverWreake #RiverSoar #RiverAvon #RiverSevern

The river walls are a vital part of #London's #FloodDefences. Repeated raising of the river walls tells the story of changing river levels.

The walls preserve evidence of signs and symbols for mariners and others, of on-shore boundaries, such as parish and property markers and infrastructure, like cranes and drains.

The river wall at #Greenwich is partly built from reused masonry and a fragmentary inscription to 'Neighbours and Friends' survives - perhaps a fitting reminder to act together to protect communities at risk from #ClimateChange.
