Concernant le toponyme » Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, England, La Grande-Bretagne

Rickmansworth is a small town in South-West Hertfordshire, England located mainly to the north of the Grand Union Canal and the River Colne. The nearest large town is Watford, approximately 5 miles to the east. Rickmansworth is the administrative seat of the Three Rivers District Council local authority. The name of the local authority is derived from the confluence of three rivers within the perimeter of Rickmansworth. The River Gade and the Grand Union Canal join the upper River Colne near the eastern boundary of Rickmansworth. They are then joined in turn at a confluence with the River Chess near Rickmansworth town centre. The now much larger Colne flows south to form a major tributary of the River Thames.
