Bow Back Rivers or Stratford Back Rivers is a complex of waterways between Bow and Stratford in east London England which connect the River Lea to the River Thames. Starting in the twelfth century works were carried out to drain Stratford Marshes and several of the waterways were constructed to power watermills.
