This stream (not named on the map) follows the old route of the Potteries Loop Line - now the Scotia Valley Greenway, a path and cycleway - for some distance east of Kidsgrove. Its colour looks alarming, but this is caused by ironstone leeching, a phenomenon that also affects the Trent & Mersey Canal in the area.
