The watercourse nearest Titson

The nearest watercourse on the river map is the River Neet, about 10 m from the middle of Titson's gauges. It flows on to the sea.

A gauge downstream shows water that has already passed this point; one upstream sees it first. Distances along the river are from the point on the River Neet nearest the middle of Titson's gauges.
