The Mangerton River below Mangerton

The Mangerton River is a river of south-western Dorset. It rises on Powerstock Common, above Powerstock, and flows westward to Mangerton, where it once powered the historic Mangerton Mill.

From here the river turns south to join the River Asker at Bradpole on the edge of Bridport: the united stream goes on to join the River Brit, just below the town centre to finish the short distance to the sea at West Bay.
