River Slea, Hampshire
From Wikishire
The River Slea is four-mile long river in Hampshire, and which is a tributary of the south branch of the River Wey. The Wey is a river of neighbouring Surrey, but before entering the county where is spends most of its course, it swallows the waters of the Slea.
Course
The river flows east from the confluence of the Kingsley and the longer Oakhanger streams at Kingsley Mill (51°7’57"N, 0°52’52"W), through the village of Sleaford until it meets the Wey just north of Brockford Bridge (51°8’31"N, 0°49’52"W).
The section between Kingsley Mill and Sleaford is also known as the Oxney Stream.[1]
The Slea's main tributary is the Oxney Moss which rises on the west side of Bordon and joins at Sleaford.
