"Derwent Valley Heritage Way, which ends at Derwent Mouth. Derwent Mouth Derwent Mouth is a location on the River Trent, which at that point forms the border between the English counties of Derbyshire and Leicestershire. It is both the confluence of the River Derwent with the River Trent, and the point at which the Trent and Mersey Canal joins the natural River Trent. Derwent Mouth is situated some east of Shardlow, and west of Trent Lock, where the navigable River Soar and Erewash Canal join the River Trent. It is about south-west of the centre of the city of Nottingham,"
"the largest in terms of flow is the Tame which drains most of the West Midlands, including Birmingham and the Black Country. The second and third largest are the Derwent and the Dove respectively; together these two rivers drain the majority of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, including the upland areas of the Peak District. The River Soar which drains the majority of the county of Leicestershire, could also be considered as the second largest tributary, as it has a larger catchment area than the Dove or Derwent, but its discharge is significantly less than the Derwent, and lower than the Dove."
"River Tamar The Tamar (; ) is a river in south west England, that forms most of the border between Devon (to the east) and Cornwall (to the west).
