Geography

The Blâme is a tributary of the Auvézère river.[1] It empties into the Auvézère slightly east of the commune of La Boissière-d'Ans at a small waterfall area called La Forge d'Ans.[2]

The Blâme has one tributary of its own, the small Soue river (also called Lassoue).[3] The two rivers join at the village of Brouchaud, providing an artesian water source for the local area.
