Peasey Beck
Peasey Beck is a river in Cumbria, which rises on Lambrigg Fell as Sparishaw Beck. Peasey Beck flows through Killington Reservoir and merges with Stainton Beck to form the River Bela near Overthwaite. Peasey Beck has a catchment area of 40.1 km2 and is 19.6 km long.[1] Killington Reservoir (aka Bendrigg Reservoir) was built in 1819 to control the water supply for the Lancaster Canal. At Crooklands there is an aqueduct carrying the canal over Peasey Beck. Also, at Crooklands, is a channel from Peasey Beck feeding the canal. Further downstream, Lupton Beck joins Peasey Beck, shortly before the confluence of Peasey and Stainton Becks.
