The river flows in a generally eastward direction from its source at Llechrydau, Powys, across the English-Welsh border to its convergence with the River Vyrnwy near Domgay. The river's drainage basin covers an area of approximately 30km2, which includes one relatively large tributary to the east amongst several smaller streams that flow into the main channel. The predominant land use along the course of the river is agriculture, with large expanses of open pasture. Beyond Llawnt, the river flows through wooded terrain for about a kilometre before reaching Morda where the river encounters the first urbanised area along its route. The main stem of the river has been divided into two sections for classification purposes with a total length of {{convert|27.1|km|mi}}.[1][2] 2017 pollution incidentOn 19 January 2017, a report of acid pollution in the River Morda was made to the Environment Agency.[3] The pollution incident resulted in significant fish mortality. An investigation into the cause and impact of the incident was subsequently launched by the Environment Agency and United Utilities.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Morda - source to conf unnamed trib |url=http://environment.data.gov.uk/catchment-planning/WaterBody/GB109054055070|website=Catchment Data Explorer|publisher=Environment Agency |accessdate=30 November 2017}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Morda - conf unnamed trib to conf Vyrnwy |url=http://environment.data.gov.uk/catchment-planning/WaterBody/GBGB109054049930|website=Catchment Data Explorer|publisher=Environment Agency |accessdate=30 November 2017}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-shropshire-38688977|title=Thousands of fish die in river pollution|date=2017|work=BBC News|access-date=29 November 2017|language=en-GB}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.shropshirestar.com/news/environment/2017/01/26/oswestry-river-morda-chemical-leak-it-could-take-years-for-wildlife-to-recover-from-pollution/|title=Oswestry River Morda chemical leak: It could take years for wildlife to recover from pollution|website=www.shropshirestar.com|language=en|access-date=29 November 2017}} External links{{commons category|River Morda}}
