Caw Burn (trib. Haltwhistle Burn)


Caw Burn is a tributary of Haltwhistle Burn, which is in the River South Tyne catchment area, in Northumberland. Caw Burn flows for 6.3 km, in a roughly south-westerly direction, from Greenlee Lough, joining Pont Gallon Burn, to form Haltwhistle Burn. The Romans built an extensive aqueduct to carry water from Caw Burn westwards to Great Chesters Roman fort.
