Diagram illustrating a cross-section of the River Thames area, highlighting geological formations and infrastructure including tunnels, storm tanks, and a pumping station.This diagram provides a cross-sectional view of the geological make-up and infrastructure associated with the River Thames. It displays various geological layers including superficial deposits and distinct geological formations marked as the Thames group, Lambeth group, Thanet formation, and Seaford chalk formation. Key infrastructures are denoted, such as the Acton storm tanks, Carnwath Road riverside, Kirtling Street, Chambers Wharf, and the Abbey Mills pumping station. The diagram also indicates a main tunnel that extends across different segments labelled West, Central, and East, with accompanying distances. Vertical measures are shown indicating depths, with notable heights including thirty-one metres and sixty-six metres, respectively. The sections are depicted with different shading or patterns to differentiate geological compositions.
