River Etherow

It rises at Featherbed Moss in South Yorkshire, then broadens into the Longdendale chain of reservoirs in the Peak District National Park. It emerges again in Tintwistle[?], Derbyshire, at the foot of Bottoms Reservoir[?] dam, and at Melandra Castle[?], Gamesley, it is joined by the Glossop Brook[?] (which takes in waters from Shelf, Yellowstacks and Chunal).

It enters Tameside at Hollingworth[?] in the foothills of the Pennines. It passes through Stockport[?] and the Etherow Country Park[?], then joins the River Goyt. The River Tame also joins the Goyt, and all three form the River Mersey.
