River Walk through Barking & Ilford - Loxford Water & Seven Kings Water (4K)

A river walk following the Loxford Water and Seven Kings Water - tributaries of the River Roding.
Our walk starts at Barking Park where the Loxford Water flows beside the boating lake. Barking Park opened in 1898 and is fine example of a late Victorian park. We then walk along South Park Drive where the Loxford Water flows along a culvert to South Park where the river starts its journey to the Roding in the lake.
We start our walk along the Seven Kings Water on the other side of the lake crossing Green Lane and then walking along High Gardens and Aldborough Road South to Seven Kings High Road. The river leads us into Westwood Recreation Ground where we see the Seven Kings Water flowing above ground for the first time. Our river walk then takes us through Seven Kings Park, around King George's Hospital and across the A12 Eastern Avenue. We have to leave the side of the river for a while here as it runs across inaccessible farm land and rough ground and our route takes us p Hainault Road. We are re-united with the river in Elmbridge Road, Hainault where it flows into the Garden of Peace cemetery.
We walk parallel to the course of the river along Huntsman Road to Peregrine Road where we again find the Seven Kings Water.

The last section of the walk takes us into Hainault Forest Country Park where the Seven Kings Water has its source in the lake.
Thanks to Paul who suggested this walk in a comment on my video of a walk along the Cran Brook, and Diamond Geezer for his description of the course of the Seven Kings Water and Loxford Water
