[edit] Contradiction?

The article says that "The river leaves the Serpentine by the cascade at the Eastern end of that lake", but earlier it states that since 1834 the water for the Serpentine was no longer supplied by the Westbourne - so how can this still be true?

[edit] Excellent

As someone who lives in the neighbourhood described in this article, I'd like to enthuse about this informative article. I've seen pictures of the Bayswater and the West Bourne, but only now understood the connection between them.

[edit] Victorian pedants

Removed "According to Victorian pedants" from the discussion of the name, since it seems to be merely an insulting reference to someone's scholarship without even including a reference to who did the research being denegrated.
