River Enborne
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The River Enborne is a river that rises near Newbury, Berkshire and flows into the River Kennet.
Its source is in the country of Hampshire, and part of its course forms the border between Berkshire and Hampshire.
Unlike the name suggests, it does not run through the village of Enborne, Berkshire, although it does run through Enborne Row, Berkshire.
The river plays a significant part in Richard Adams' novel, Watership Down. Early in the book, the rabbits from Sandleford are threatened by a dog. Blackberry realises that they can float across on a wooden board, and thus they make their escape.
