The South West of England can be wet and raining (occasionally!!), all that water needs to go somewhere, at times it probably feels like its falling always on Bodmin Moor or Dartmoor! This section includes all those rivers, streams, reservoirs and the brilliantly built leats that hold or carry the water from one place to another. Plus there is a map below to help you not fall into those boggy bits!
