River Bleng

The River Bleng is a tributary of the River Irt in the county of Cumbria in northern England. The river gives its name to the valley that it flows through which is called Blengdale.

The river rises at Stockdale Head in the Lake District, it then flows south and then east towards its confluence with the river Irt.
