词条 | Wyming Brook |
释义 |
The Wyming Brook is a river in the City of Sheffield, England. Its source is the Redmires Reservoirs near the Hallam Moors. It flows in a northeasterly direction for over a kilometre down quite steep terrain into an underground chamber where it joins the Rivelin tunnel before it flows into the lower of the Rivelin Dams.[1] There is a path that runs alongside the brook which is popular with walkers. The path can be quite steep, with it and the brook falling over 100 m in a kilometre. The river flows almost its entire length within the Wyming Brook Nature Reserve. The surrounds are wooded near the bottom and more open near the top, with stunning views of the Rivelin Valley and beyond. Wildlife found around Wyming Brook includes the dipper and the crossbill.[2] Above, and to the west of the watercourse on Ash Cabin Flat is an embanked stone circle, dating to the Bronze Age.[3] References1. ^"Reminiscing Around Rivelin", Roy Davey, No ISBN, Page 8, Gives history, reservoir data and details of Rivelin tunnel and water treatment works. {{Waterways in Sheffield}}{{Rivers of Yorkshire}}{{coord|53.3694|-1.5959|type:river_region:GB|display=title}} {{SouthYorkshire-geo-stub}}{{England-river-stub}}2. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.wildsheffield.com/nature-reserves/our-reserves/wyming-brook|title=Wyming Brook {{!}} Sheffield Wildlife Trust|website=www.wildsheffield.com|access-date=2017-12-02}} 3. ^{{NHLE|num=1016623|desc=Stone circle on Ash Cabin Flat, 560m north east of Reservoir Cottages, Sheffield |accessdate=4 December 2017}} 1 : Rivers of Sheffield |
