River and water · The Northern Marches
Harrow Water
The Harrow water is the Northern Marches' only river of consequence, and Harrowgate exists because of its lowest crossing. Downstream of the town it is tidal and has no bridge; upstream the valley narrows into the upland and holds only the drove. Townspeople prize a dry cellar for the times the river rises.
