Welcome to Liddle Water

Liddle Water is a river that flows through the county of Cumbria in England. It is a tributary of the River Esk and is approximately 15 miles long. The river rises in the hills near the village of Bewcastle and flows through the Liddle Valley before joining the River Esk near the town of Longtown. The river is known for its scenic beauty and is a popular spot for fishing and hiking.

The Liddle Valley is a remote and sparsely populated area of Cumbria. The valley is surrounded by hills and moors, and the river flows through a series of small villages and hamlets. The area is rich in wildlife, and visitors to the valley can expect to see a variety of birds, mammals, and insects. The river itself is home to brown trout, salmon, and sea trout, and is a popular spot for anglers.

The Liddle Water is an important part of the local ecosystem and is protected by various conservation measures. The river is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) due to its importance for wildlife, and there are strict regulations in place to protect the river and its surroundings. The Liddle Valley is also a popular destination for walkers and hikers, with a number of trails and footpaths running alongside the river. Overall, Liddle Water is a beautiful and important part of the Cumbrian landscape, and is well worth a visit for anyone interested in nature and the outdoors.
