These were narrow, steep and winding, being totally unsuitable for wheeled traffic. Much earlier, the Roman XX (20th) Legion had built a road from Manchester to Ribchester and onward to The Old Bridge at Cadshaw Hadrian’s Wall.

This document may be reproduced with prior permission of the Environment Agency. December 2009 Introduction I am pleased to introduce our summary of the Ribble Catchment Flood Management Plan (CFMP). This CFMP gives an overview of the flood risk in the Ribble catchment and sets out our preferred plan for sustainable flood risk management over the next 50 to 100 years. The Ribble CFMP is one of 77 CFMPs for England and parts of Preston are also at risk of tidal flooding. and Wales. Through the CFMPs, we have assessed We estimate 6400 properties in the catchment have inland flood risk across all of England and Wales for a 1% annual probability of flooding from rivers or a the first time. The CFMP considers all types of inland 0.5% annual probability of flooding from the tide. We flooding, from rivers, groundwater, surface water estimate that by 2100 approximately 12,400 properties and tidal flooding, but not flooding directly from the will be at risk of flooding (fluvial and tidal).

Discharges and Consents 4.1 Authority Sewage Treatment Works 4.2 Authority Trade Effluent Discharges 4.3 Private Trade Effluent Discharges 4.4 Private Sewage Treatment Works 4 .5 Storm Sewage Overflows 5. Special Cases MARCH 1979 Introduction The purpose of this Report is to make recommendations for the revision of consents for discharges within the catchment of the River Irwell, downstream to and including the River Medlock in Manchester. This revision has the sole objective of recognising the present effluent and river water quality - proposals for long term river water quality objectives are to be put forward in other Reports. The report identifies the existing situation regarding the legal status of effluent discharges from Authority and non-Authority owned installations within the catchment, details the determinand concentration limits included in existing discharge consents (where appropriate) and proposes the limits to be included in the reviewed consents. The reviewed consents will reflect the quality of efflu­ ent achievable by good operation of the existing plant based on 1977 effluent quality data but taking into account any improvements, extensions etc. that have been or are about to be carried out and any known further industrial and/or housing development in the works drainage area. The proposed limits are intended to be the 95% compliance figures rather than the 80% compliance figures inferred in existing consents and hence the new figures will obviously be higher than the old.
