32. BANKS OF THE COLNE, BETWEEN UXBR1DGE AND 

 HAREFIELD. 



The Colne flows in a dual stream, with a canal in connexion with it. 

 Its waters are clear, and the current moderately swift. The meadows 

 through which it meanders are generally marshy, and, though drained, 

 are subject to floods when the waters are high. The low hills on the 

 eastern side of the vale about Harefield are wooded ; above, a gravelly 

 subsoil overlies the chalk, but below the chalk is apparent. On the 

 opposite side are low chalk hills at a little distance, free from trees and 

 scrub. Towards Uxbridge this formation disappears. By the canal is a 

 towing-path, and at Harefield are chalk-pits ; Harefield Common, formerly 

 an extensive open district, has all been enclosed ; it possessed a rich 

 and varied flora, of which particulars were recorded by Blackstone 

 (A.D. 1800). Old Park Wood is private property, permission must be ob- 

 tained to visit it ; Moor Park is free, but there is not much out of the 

 common within its precincts. . The lane from Harefield towards Rickmans- 

 worth, between the road and the canal, leads to a farm near that town. 

 Bacher Heath, by the high-road, is a small patch of Furze, Heath, Brake, 

 and Bramble, with a moory hollow on its north-west border, and a wood 

 beyond.
