River Hodder

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The River Hodder is a river in Lancashire, England. It rises on White Hill and flows for 30 miles to the River Ribble, of which it is the largest tributary, near Clitheroe. The confluence of the rivers is an impressive sight, particularly when both are in spate. The river is very scenic with much of its course in the Forest of Bowland area of outstanding natural beauty. There are no towns along its banks. The upper reaches of the river feed the large Stocks Reservoir, which provides much of the water supply to Lancashire. The river is a County Biological Heritage Site.
