Descriptive Gazetteer Entry for LEACH (THE)

LEACH (THE), a river in Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire. It rises near Northleach; and runs about 15 miles south-eastward, past Eastleach-Martin and Eastleach-Turville, to the Thames, 2 miles E of Lechlade. Only its lowest reach, to the length of 3½ miles, has connection with Oxfordshire; and part of that is on the boundary.
