Stockdalewath is a small village in the ceremonial county of Cumbria, but in the historic county of Cumberland, approximately 7.5 miles south of Carlisle in the extreme northwest of England. It is located on the River Roe, and is in the civil parish of Dalston.
The nearest watercourse on the river map is the River Roe, about 10 m from the middle of Stockdalewath's gauges. It flows into the River Caldew about 2.9 km downstream.
A gauge downstream shows water that has already passed this point; one upstream sees it first. Distances along the river are from the point on the River Roe nearest the middle of Stockdalewath's gauges. From Ordnance Survey’s river map (OS Open Rivers), which leaves out small streams, ditches and culverts, so a nearer one may exist. This describes where water goes on the map; it says nothing about flooding at any address. Contains OS data © Crown copyright and database rights 2026.
