Der Itchen wurde im Jahre AD70 von den Römern in ein künstliches Flussbett (östlich des Tales gelegen) umgeleitet.

The river flows in several different channels through the city of Winchester, some of which come close enough to Winchester Cathedral to have caused serious problems to the building's foundations in earlier years. The main channel flows through Winchester City Mill and to the east of the city's Roman walls, along a promenaded reach known as 'The Weirs'.
