Bedale Beck looking East after the floods on 11 Jan 2007
Another example of the power of Mother Nature. A normally humble little beck played at being a proper river for the day.

Leeming Bridge
Sturdy 18thC bridge over Bedale Beck at Leeming. The bridge once carried the A1 over the beck, but over the decades the line of the main road to the north has changed twice, and this has become a quiet backwater.

Bedale Beck from Leeming Bridge
A glance at the OS map will show that Bedale Beck follows a course that appears to be a series of straight lines with occasional bends between Bedale and the Swale. This could be as a result of works to improve drainage, but I'm inclined to think that any straightening was done as part of the failed scheme to canalise the beck in the 18thC. The remains of a lock a short way upstream from here and the more obvious 'harbour' works in Bedale help confirm my suspicions.
