Brathay, River   Rothay, River   Leven, River   Crake, River

Duddon, River
	The Duddon rises on the south of Bowfell and separates Cumberland from Lancashire. Unretarded by any lake, it pursues its course in a pretty transparent stream, and enters the sea on the north of the Isle of Walney.
Esk, River   Irt, River   Mite, River   Bleng, River
	The Esk, rising on the east of Scawfell, retains its name till it enters the sea at Ravenglass; where the Irt from Wasdale, and the Mite from Miterdale, join it upon the sands. The Bleng, passing Gosforth, falls into the Irt above Santon Bridge.
Liza Beck   Liza, River   Ehen, River   Calder, River
	The water flowing from the north side of Gable has a long meandering stream down Ennerdale; it is called the Lisa till it enters the lake; afterwards it is the Ehen till it falls into the sea half way between Ravenglass and St. Bees.- The Calder, rising in Copeland Forest, enters the sea near the same place.
