River Lyvennet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The River Lyvennet is a river flowing through the county of Cumbria in England.

The source of the Lyvennet (as Lyvennet Beck) is to be found close to Robin Hood's Grave on Crosby Ravensworth Moor, an area rich in ancient remains.

From there, the beck flows northwards through Crosby Ravensworth and Maulds Meaburn, emerging as the River Lyvennet.

The river is joined by the River Leith shortly before the Lyvennet's own confluence with the River Eden.

The Lyvennet valley may be Taliesin's "Llwyfenydd" and would thus be associated with the post-Roman state of Rheged.
