Willow Brook near Fotheringhay

The Willow Brook is a small river and a tributary of the River Nene, whose entire course is within Northamptonshire.

The Willow Brook rises to the north of Corby: until 1980, the srings here were exploited industrially, the water extracted for use at Corby Steelworks. The river then flows through or near Deene, Bulwick, Blatherwycke, King's Cliffe and Woodnewton and joins the Nene downstream from Fotheringhay.
