This water commeth out of a lake, which is fed with six rils, whereof
[Sidenote: Marke.]
one is called the Marke, and néere the fall thereof into the plash is
[Sidenote: Harteshop.]
a towne of the same name; the second hight Harteshop, & runneth from
[Sidenote: Paterdale.]
Harteshop hall by Depedale; the third is Paterdale rill; the fourth
[Sidenote: Roden.]
[Sidenote: Glenkguin.]
Glent Roden, the fift Glenkguin, but the sixt runneth into the said
lake, south of Towthwate. Afterward when this lake commeth toward Pole
towne, it runneth into a small chanell, & going by Barton, Dalumaine,
it taketh in a rill by the waie from Daker castell. Thence it goeth to
Stockebridge, Yoneworth, and soone after méeteth with a pretie brooke
[Sidenote: Loder.]
called Loder, comming from Thornethwate by Bauton, and héere a rill;
then by Helton, and there another; thence to Askham, Clifton, and so
ioining with the other called Vlse, they go to Brougham castell, Nine
churches, Hornebie, and so into Eden, taking in a rill (as it goeth)
that commeth downe from Pencath. Being past Hornebie, our Eden runneth
to Langunbie, and soone after receiuing a rill that commeth from two
heads, and ioining beneath Wingsell, it hasteth to Lasenbie, then to
Kirke Oswald (on ech side whereof commeth in a rill from by east)
thence to Nonneie, and there a rill, Anstable, Cotehill, Corbie
castell, Wetherall, Newbie: where I will staie, till I haue described
the Irding, and such waters as fall into the same before I go to
Carleill.
[Sidenote: Irding.]
The Irding ariseth in a moore in the borders of Tindale, néere vnto
[Sidenote: Terne.]
Horsse head crag, where it is called Terne becke; vntill it come to
Spicrag hill, that diuideth Northumberland and Gillesland in sunder,
from whence it is named Irding. Being therfore come to Ouerhall, it
[Sidenote: Pultrose.]
receiueth the Pultrose becke, by east, and thence goeth on to
Ouerdenton, Netherdenton, Leuercost, and Castelstead, where it taketh
[Sidenote: Cambocke.]
in the Cambocke, that runneth by Kirke Cambocke, Askerton castell,
Walton, and so into Irding, which goeth from thence to Irdington,
Newbie, & so into Eden. But a little before it come there, it crosseth
[Sidenote: Gillie.]
with the Gillie that commeth by Tankin, and soone after falleth into
it. After these confluences, our Eden goeth to Linstocke castell, (and
here it interteineth a brooke, comming from Cotehill ward by
Aglionbie) and then vnto Carleill, which is now almost inuironed with
foure waters.
