This guide describes the waterways of the Middle Level, an area of Fenland lying between Morton’s Leam near the River Nene to the west and the Old Bedford River to the east and stretching from Wisbech in the north to Earith in the south. These waterways provide not only a unique drainage network but also a navigation link between the River Great Ouse near Denver and the River Nene at Peterborough and thence to the Grand Union Canal.
Following a description of the waterways, towns and villages, all rich in history and folklore, there is an explanation of the evolution of the Fenland and the development of its drainage system.
The Great Ouse, the New Bedford River, the land lying between and to the south of these two rivers (the South Level), the Nene and the land lying to the north (the North Level), are described only in so far as it is necessary to complete the account of the Middle Level.
The guide will be of interest not only to all river users, particularly navigators and walkers, but also to those who wish to explore the Fens.
