River Petteril
The River Petteril is a river running through Cumberland.
The source of the Petteril is near Penruddock and Motherby, from where the young river runs southeast through Greystoke, Blencow and Newton Reigny, before passing under the M6 motorway, after which the river turns north, and the motorway roughly follows the course of the river towards Carlisle, the county town, in the very north of the county.
Having reached Carlisle, the Petteril runs a course through the south east of the city, dividing the suburbs of Harraby, Upperby and Botcherby before joining the River Eden on its journey to the Solway Firth.
