I am not convinced this is a real river, for the reasons expressed on Talk:River Broadwater. The section of river it refers to is called River Blackwater by the Ordnance Survey, and Twyford Brook, which is further north, was historically called the Broadwater, but has an article called Twyford Brook.

- I have just discovered that the current Ordnance Survey 1:2500 map marks the stretch of river below the junction with the Whitewater as both the Broadwater and the Blackwater. I think a sentence on the Blackwater article about alternative names should be adequate.Bob1960evens (talk) 08:23, 18 June 2020 (UTC) I have now added a short section to the River Blackwater article which discusses naming, and am sure that Broadwater was applied to a small section of the Blackwater that was somewhat wider than the rest.

- Redirect to River Blackwater (River Loddon) seems to be most reasonable option. Hzh (talk) 16:13, 25 June 2020 (UTC)
