River Foss

The River Foss is an improved river in the unitary authority of City of York and a tributary of the River Ouse. It was promoted by Acts of Parliament in 1793 and 1801. It is navigable for just over a mile from Monks Bridge (over the A1036 road) to Blue Bridge in the centre of York, Yorkshire where it joins the Ouse.
