River Annas

The River Annas is a minor river in Cumberland.

The river is formed as the Kinmont Beck and Crookley Beck which drain the south-western fells of the Lake District, meet on the eastern edge of the village of Bootle. Their combined waters flow southwest towards Annaside on the Irish Sea coast.

Longshore drift]] has diverted the river north-westwards parallel to the shore for a further mile, so that it enters the sea at Selker.

The river is bridged by the A595 road and the Cumberland coast railway line.
