The 1928 Thames flood was a disastrous flood of the River Thames that affected much of riverside London on 7 January 1928, as well as places further downriver. Fourteen people died and thousands were made homeless when floodwaters poured over the top of the Thames Embankment and part of the Chelsea Embankment collapsed. It was the last major flood to affect central London, and, along with the disastrous North Sea flood of 1953, helped lead to the implementation of new flood control measures that culminated in the construction of the Thames Barrier in the 1970s.

  • Лондонское наводнение 1928 года — наводнение, которое произошло в ночь на 7 января 1928 года, когда река Темза в центре Лондона вышла из берегов, и её воды затопили большие площади в городе. В результате наводнения, унёсшего жизни 14 человек, тысячи людей остались без крова, сильно пострадали многие здания. Это наводнение стало последним крупным наводнением, произошедшим в центральном Лондоне до нынешнего времени. (ru)
  • Themsens översvämning 1928 (engelska: 1928 Thames flood) var en svår översvämning på Themsen som drabbade stora delar av London den 6-7 januari 1928. 14 personer drunknade och tusentals blev hemlösa då vattnet steg vid och delar av Chelsea Embankment kollapsade. Översvämningen var den sista större i och ledde, tillsammans med Stormfloden i Nordsjön 1953, slutligen till att Themsenbarriären byggdes under 1970-talet. (sv)
