Description: | A red painted incised line on a smooth concrete wall surface, representing the level of the River Thames in steps from its source at the western end to sea level at the east end, labelled Shivering Sand Tower. A black painted incised line below represents sea level. Place names along the river are incised vertically. At the eastern end, the river level is marked for two occasions when the barrier was closed and water on the unprotected side reached up to the wall itself (11 January 1993 and 24 December 1988). Additional Information: A profile of the River Thames, with heights above sea level and places of interest. | Subjects: | Mural | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Read, Simon Stonemason: Russell, Leon | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=6981... | Go to resource |
