The Stolen River (Thames) flows through this inland plain, from Hell to the [[:Category:The Unterzee|Unterzee]]. <ref>{{FLCitation|https://fallenlondon.fandom.com/wiki/Sidebar_Snippets|Sidebar Snippets|Fallen London|}}''"Where does the river go?"''</ref> Most of the Hinterlands are uninhabited, and have been so for millennia, with only a few [[The Fallen Cities|First City]] ruins to indicate anyone ever lived here.

==Stations== | |||
*[[Ealing Gardens]], closest to London and home to [[Rubbery Men|Rubbery folk]]. | |||
*[[Jericho Locks]], the next closest, which serves as home for those who work the canals in the Upper River. | |||
*[[The Magistracy of the Evenlode]], a settlement atop First City ruins that is the outer bound of the reach of London's laws. | |||
*Balmoral, the Empress's Scottish holding that has fallen with London into the Neath. | |||
*Station VIII, a factory complex that extracts emotions in chemical form. | |||
*Burrow-Infra-Mump, a lonely church next to Hell's figurative gates. | |||
