The Porter Brook, nearly dry
Image: © Stephen Craven Taken: 5 Apr 2012
Despite significant rainfall the previous day and snow on the moors, there was still little flow in the river after a very dry winter at its downstream end just above the confluence with the River Sheaf. For a detailed account of this urban river, see Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porter_Brook - a search on Geograph will bring up several images of it by other contributors.
