It is part of the River Derwent catchment area.[1] The River Hertford starts close to Muston near the seaside town of Filey. Despite being only {{convert|2|km|mi|order=flip}} from the North Sea (to its eastern side) the river flows westwards for {{convert|16|km|mi|order=flip}}[2] into the River Derwent at Haybridge.[3] It is sometimes referred to as a 'Backward River' because it flows away from the sea.[4] Ekwall suggests the name derives from a ford over the river, which became the name by back formation.[5] Star Carr, a Mesolithic archaeological site, lies close to the river.[3] Star Carr was on the edge of a nine-thousand year old Stone Age wetland known a Lake Flixton. This area is now known as the River Hertford Floodplain and extends from Muston in the east to Ganton in the west.[6]Originally the river meandered, but in the 19th century an act was passed (The Muston & Yedingham Drainage Act 1800) which meant that the River Derwent and the River Hertford were straightened by cutting a new course for each.[7] The Hertford was hand dug during the industrial revolution (local stories hold that the men who dug the new channel were prisoners from the Napoleonic Wars).[8] The River Hertford catchment suffers from the discharges of three sewage plants at Folkton, Hunmanby and Seamer. This not only affects the quality of the river but also that of the Derwent downstream of Haybridge.[9] References1. ^{{cite book|title=The Derwent Catchment Abstraction Management Strategy|date=March 2006|publisher=Environment Agency|page=6|url=http://publications.environment-agency.gov.uk/pdf/GENE0206BKFB-e-e.pdf|archive-url=http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20091011004946/http://publications.environment-agency.gov.uk/pdf/GENE0206BKFB-e-e.pdf|dead-url=yes|archive-date=11 October 2009|accessdate=22 January 2016}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Hertford from source to River Derwent|url=http://environment.data.gov.uk/catchment-planning/WaterBody/GB104027067811|website=Catchment Data Explorer|publisher=Environment Agency|accessdate=25 October 2016}} 3. ^1 {{cite book|title=Waterways Strategy 2012-2020 : River Hertford Waterway Information Template|date=November 2012|publisher=East Riding & North Yorkshire Waterways Partnership|page=1|url=http://www.ruralprogrammeseastyorkshire.co.uk/previous-programmes/leader-2007-2013/funded-projects/waterways-partnership/waterways-strategy/|accessdate=22 January 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=River Hertford|url=http://www.ruralprogrammeseastyorkshire.co.uk/past-programmes/leader-2007-2013/funded-projects/waterways-partnership/our-waterways/?entryid108=203033|website=Rural Programmes|accessdate=25 October 2016}} 5. ^{{cite book|last1=Ekwall|first1=Eilert|title=English river-names|date=1968|publisher=Clarendon Press|location=Oxford|isbn=9780198691198|page=195}} 6. ^{{cite news|title=Farmers protect Stone Age land|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/local/york/hi/people_and_places/nature/newsid_8344000/8344426.stm|accessdate=25 October 2016|work=BBC York & North Yorkshire|date=5 November 2009}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Brief history of the parish|url=http://www.willerbystaxtonpc.com/about-parish/brief-history-of-willerby-parish/|website=Willerby & Staxton|accessdate=25 October 2016}} 8. ^{{cite web|last1=Bayes|first1=Kevin|last2=Linfoot|first2=Harriet|last3=Green|first3=Steven|last4=Bowles|first4=Judith|title=Yorkshire's Hidden Vale|url=http://www.ruralprogrammeseastyorkshire.co.uk/EasySiteWeb/GatewayLink.aspx?alId=203153|website=Rural Programmes|publisher=Yorkshire Wildlife Trust|accessdate=25 October 2016|location=6.1.2|page=12|format=PDF}} 9. ^{{cite web|title=Derwent Consultation Report|url=http://www.environmentdata.org/fedora/repository/ealit:516/OBJ/19001123.pdf|website=Environment Data|publisher=Environment Agency|accessdate=27 October 2016|page=18|format=PDF|date=February 1997}} External links{{Commons category|River Hertford|position=left}}{{coord|54.19706|-0.49841|type:river_region:GB|format=dms|display=title}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Hertford}}{{NorthYorkshire-geo-stub}}{{England-river-stub}} 1 : Rivers of North Yorkshire |
