Morecambe Bay Estuaries and Catchments
Morecambe Bay estuaries and catchments The group of estuaries that comprise Morecambe Bay form the largest area of intertidal mudflats and sands in the UK. The four rivers discharging into the bay are the Leven (with Crake) and Kent (with Bela) in the North, and Lune and Wyre in the East (Figure 1). Fig 1. The four contributory areas of the estuarine system of Morecambe Bay in Northwest England (below) of the Leven, Kent, Lune and Wyre rivers (left). The neighbouring rivers of the Ribble and South West Lakes region are also shown1 The Leven and Kent basins cover over 1,000 km2 (1,426 km2 when grouped with the neighbouring River Duddon), the Lune 1,223 km2 and Wyre 450 km2, with all draining into Morecambe Bay between the towns of Barrow-in-Furness in the Northwest and Blackpool in the South. The city of Lancaster and towns of Ulverston, Broughton-in-Furness, Ambleside, Windermere, Bowness-on- Windermere, Grange-over-Sands, Sedburgh, Kendal, Kirkby Lonsdale, Ingleton, Carnforth, Morecambe, Garstang, Fleetwood and Blackpool lie within the basins. Leven and Kent basins: River Leven is sourced on both Bow Fell (902 m) at the head of the Langdale Valley and Dollywagon Pike (858 m) above Dunmail Raise. These fells comprise of volcanic rocks of the Borrowdale Volcanic Group that characterise the central Cumbrian Mountains. The source on Bow Fell is only 3 km from the wettest place in the UK with the Sprinkling Tarn raingauge recording 6,528 mm in 1954. Both tributary streams flow through Lake Windermere (Fig. 2) that is England’s largest lake with a surface area of 14.7 km2. -
2016 Helm Hill Senior Club Championship
Helm Hill Runners Spring Newsletter 2016 CHAIRMAN’S BIT—TIM MURRAY hanks to all those who have contributed to this newsletter……..another hectic start to T the year for the Helm Hill! Thanks also to everyone who helped out with another record breaking year in the Winter League. Great to see so many runners from Helm and other clubs enjoying this fantastic series of races. It looks as if we may have outgrown at least one venue (Fairmile) because of the number of people racing so if anyone else has any ideas for new races with good parking let us know! All the Winter League race organisers will be getting together soon over pie and peas (and possibly a drink) to look at anything we need to differently next year. All suggestions welcome. It’s been great to see the famous Helm Hill vest out in force at so many races this year…….the #greenmachine is certainly getting noticed particularly at junior and senior championship races. 28 runners made the trip to Car- nethy, 30 to Black Combe, 18 crossed the water to Ireland, 55 were at Loughrigg and 34 juniors raced at Todd Crag. If anyone is thinking of travelling to races for the first time, don’t worry, you will be in good company! Helm Hill members have also been involved in other exciting challenges. Well done to Carrie G for completing the infamous Marathon des Sables and Rowan R for completing the London Marathon in a great time. Good luck to Fiona P with her BG in June and the Helm Hill women taking part in the Billy Bland challenge later this year. -

I hope that you are keeping well and have been able to enjoy the many spells of wonderful weather through the spring and summer. We certainly enjoyed a prolonged period of warm and sunny days through April and into May which enabled a lot of you to spend more time outdoors enjoying the wonders of nature that are all around us, wherever we live. We are now enjoying a welcome few days of warm autumnal weather and there are still plentiful butterflies, Small Tor- toiseshells, Red Admirals, Commas, and whites to be seen nectaring in shel- tered sunny spots. I hope that you have been taking lots of photos of the butterflies, moths, caterpillars and other early stages and will now consider entering these to our 2021 Photography Competition, details of which you will find on page 31. I have been incredibly disappointed that we have not been able to resume any of our planned fieldtrips and events, including our annual members day and AGM. -
