River Thames. The River Thames (/tÉmz/ ( listen) TEMZ) is a river that flows through southern England, most notably through London. At 215 miles (346 km), it is the longest river entirely in England and the second longest in the United Kingdom, after the River Severn. It also flows through Oxford (where it is called Isis), Reading, Henley-on-Thames and Windsor.
The Thames basin is the name of the area surrounding the River Thames. Any rain falling on it ends up in the Thames, which takes it to the sea. The Thames basin covers an area of approximately 12,935 square kilometres (4,994 square miles). 13 million people live in the basin, 7 million of which live in London.
