Tyburn Brook is a tributary stream to the River Westbourne. Both watercourses are subterranean.[1] Although similarly named, the Tyburn Brook does not connect with the River Tyburn.

Brook Street in Mayfair was named after the brook.[2]

Literary references

The brook was mentioned in William Blake's Jerusalem The Emanation of the Giant Albion[3][4]:

They groan’d aloud on London Stone,

They groan’d aloud on Tyburn’s Brook:

Albion gave his deadly groan,

And all the Atlantic mountains shook.
