Abstract

This layer is indicative of watercourses believed to be ordinary watercourses, distinct from those designated as main rivers
An ordinary watercourse is any channel that water flows through, which isnt part of the main river network or a public sewer. It could be a river, stream, ditch, drain or brook.

It is derived from a variety of data sources, but not all have been fully reviewed. We are aware of some inaccuracies and investigations are ongoing to confirm data. As such this data might not show every ordinary watercourse in Hertfordshire. If a watercourse is not on the map, please contact the Responsible Organisation below to check whether it should be recorded.

Data was inherited from a layer published by the Environment Agency - which was itself derived from feature depicted on maps/records and contributions from Councils and other organisations.
