Today, it is sadly an area often overlooked by walkers as we head further north to the mountains of Scotland or to the Lake District.

    Freshwater life Martyn G Kelly, Trevor D Cris, Ben Lamb and Brian Whitton Introduction Without the River Tees there would be no Teesdale and so, whilst much of the attention in this book is focussed on the plant and animal life in the fields and fells, we should not ignore either the river or the numerous tributary streams that feed it. Cow Green Reservoir, too, plays an important part in the story of Upper Teesdale, not just because of the ways in which it has altered the landscape and habitats in the upper valley, but also because the decision to impound the river precipitated many significant ecological studies and, ironically, raised the profile of the Teesdale rarities beyond a small band of botanical cognoscenti. The River Tees was the first British River to receive a detailed biological survey (by Butcher and colleagues in the mid-1930s). This was followed in the 1970s and 1980s by studies of the upper reaches of the main river and its tributaries by Durham University and the Freshwater Biological Association (later Institute of Freshwater Ecology and now Centre for Ecology and Hydrology). Since the previous edition of this book, further studies have investigated a wide range of factors including gravel, heavy metals, availability of salmonid spawning habitat and water colour. The upper tributaries of the Tees range from torrential streams, fed at times of peak flow mainly by surface run-off, to calcareous streams with some or much of their water from limestone springs. Those with the most water from springs are the ones which vary least in flow and have the highest calcium concentrations.

  • Historical Journey Along the River Tees and Its Tributaries
    Historical Journey along the River Tees and its Tributaries Synopsis The document describes a virtual journey along the River Tees beginning at its source; the perspective is as much historical as descriptive of the current scene. Where significant tributaries join the river, they also are tracked back to their start-points. Particular attention is paid to bridges and watermills because of their intimate associations with the rivers, but nearby buildings, both religious and secular are also given attention. Some people have been specially important to developments associated with the river, and brief biographical notes are provided for them. Finally, I would stress that this is very much a personal account dealing with facets of interest to me during the 30 years or so that I spent living and working near the River Tees.

  • Results for Each Water Company
    EA-Water EA-Water Resources! REVIEW OF WATER COMPANY YIELDS APPENDIX 2 - RESULTS FOR EACH WATER COMPANY M ARCH 1998 Introduction This appendix contains the detailed deployable output results for each water company. The appendix is arranged by Environment Agency Region. Each Regional grouping contains an Agency aquifer sustainability map, followed by detailed results for each company, consisting of an Agency commentary, a resource zone map and the breakdown of the results. Groundwater unit assessment The Agency has reviewed each of the aquifer units in England and Wales to establish whether: • long term reductions in groundwater levels are occurring, and whether • adequate water resources have been reserved for river and other environmental needs. A simple "water accountancy" procedure has been used considering factors such as the natural recharge to the aquifer, the quantity taken by existing licensed abstractions and the environmental requirement for water, primarily for river flows. The procedure allows each aquifer unit to be placed into one of the three categories defined as follows: Category 1 no overall sustainability concerns Category 2 at sustainable limit Category 3 sustainability concerns This is a generalised approach; the nature of the method means that it is not definitive and more work would be needed to ascertain the environmental needs of any aquifer unit that has been placed in Category 3. Similarly, the overall balance of an aquifer unit may place it in Category 1, but there may be site specific problems associated with particular abstractions.

Website: http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/pennine-way/route/walk- way-day-walk-24-baldersdale-and-lunedale-reservoirs The Reservoirs The starting point is reached by turning off the B6277 at the north end of Cotherstone and heading 3 miles (5 kilometres) up the Baldersdale road. From the car park at the south end of the dam, walk ¾ mile (1 kilometre) along the road until, just before Willoughby Hall farm, iron gates lead to a hardcore track (1 = NY 956 189). Following the track above Hury Reservoir, when it turns onto the dam at the foot of Blackton Reservoir instead join a permissive path running along the south shore.
