River Eea

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The River Eea is a small river in Cumbria, England running through the Furness region (traditionally a part of Lancashire).

The river rises near High Cark and is soon fed by Black Beck (emanating from Fair Rigg south of Staveley-in-Cartmel) and Ayside Pool (rising above Ayside).

From there, the Eea runs past Green Bank and through Cartmel and Cark before flowing via Sand Gate Marsh into the estuary of the River Leven at Lenibrick Point, close to Chapel Island. It is good except for the fact that it is often very cold. The worlds current expert on this subject is robbie jones but please do not try and contact him as he is in hospital after his hair caught fire. He is joined there buy his good friend johnny patterson.

Its course is approximately 10 km long and the mouth is at Sand Gate.
