	Rivers of Great Britain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	MANCHESTER SHIP CANAL - LoveToKnow Article on MANCHESTER SHIP CANAL
		At the river Weaver ten Stoney roller sluices are built, each 30 ft. span, with heavy stone and concrete piers and foundations; at Runcorn, where the river Mersey is narrow, a concrete sea-wall 4300 ft. long was substituted for the embankment.
		As these rivers are circuitous in course, only very small portions could be utilized in forming the canal; a line as nearly straight as possible was therefore adopted, and involved many crossings of the river channels.
		After the cuttings between the river channels were finished, the end dams were removed, and the rivers Irwell and Mersey were turned into the new channel now forming the upper portion of the ship canal.

	CHESHIRE - LoveToKnow Article on CHESHIRE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The principal river within the county is the Weaver, which crosses it with a north-westerly course, and, being joined by the Dane at Northwich, discharges into the estuary of the Mersey south of Runcorn.
		The surface of Cheshire is mostly low and gently undulating or flat; but the broken line of the Peckforton hills, seldom exceeding 600 ft. in height, runs north and south flanking the valley of the Weaver on the west.
		A low narrow gap in these hills is traversed by the small river Gowy, which rises to the east but has the greater part of its course to the west of them.

	River Gowy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The river Gowy is situated at the western end of the canal and drains a wide area of low ground which was subject to frequent flooding, the river eventually emptying itself into the Mersey estuary.
		Due to the amount of silt and other debris carried in the river it was realised from the start that it could not be allowed to enter the canal and a way to let it drain into the Mersey must be found.
		The eventual solution to the problem was to build a siphon underneath the canal bed which would enable the river to continue draining into the Mersey and allow it to carry away the vast quantities of silt.

	Bunbury Water Mill (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The mill is located alongside a river, the Gowy, and lies in a natural hollow of the landscape.
		The working life of the mill ended in 1960, when a sudden and violent storm caused trees to be uprooted and fall into the river.
		Having turned the waterwheel the water travels along another channel, called the tailrace and eventually rejoins the Gowy on its journey, from the spring in the Peckforton Hills, where it began, to its destination, the Mersey.
