    Is the river clean and unpolluted?

      The rivers are monitored by the EPA and reports are published as soon as they become available. The Water Pollution Acts are enforced by the local authorities if there are any violations. If there are violations, they will be and have been in the news and I haven't heard or read anything about the River Eske.

    The water looks cold. I wonder if there are any fish in the Eske, and if so, what kind?

    Beautiful river. The water looks cold, probably because of its darkness. I like the lighting in this photo.

    I wonder does the river ever flood the town?

      It flooded last year when we had a big storm. They had to close the roads near the river.
