River Ellen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The River Ellen is a river in the English county of Cumbria (traditionally in Cumberland).
The river rises on the Uldale Fells and runs in a generally western direction, passing Uldale, Ireby, Boltongate, Blennerhasset and Aspatria.
From there, it continues southwest (instead of more northwesterly) past Oughterside, Gilcrux, Bullgill, Crosby and Dearham, before flowing into the Solway Firth at Maryport.
The river gives its name to the region of Allerdale.
Tributaries include:
- Dash Beck
- Gill Gooden
