Stations are listed from source to mouth as the water flows, traced on the river map (OS Open Rivers) and the Environment Agency’s own links between its gauges. A distance “by river” is along the river, and is shown only where the map traces the path.

Streams and rivers with a gauge whose water joins Aldford Brook above one of its gauges, from the source down. Named streams without a gauge that have a page here are listed at the end.
Joins Aldford Brook above Lea Hall River Station, its highest gauge, no more than 6.9 km by river above Lea Hall River Station.

Its water passes every gauge on Aldford Brook, from Lea Hall River Station down.
No gauge below Lea Hall River Station is known on the river map.
Tributaries and where they join are traced on the river map (OS Open Rivers, edition 2026-04) and the Environment Agency’s links between its gauges. The map holds distances between gauges, not the junctions themselves, so a junction is placed between two gauges, and no further up than the tributary’s own lowest gauge.

2 storm overflows are traced upstream of Lea Hall River Station, Aldford Brook’s lowest gauge on the river map: on Aldford Brook itself, on its gauged tributaries, and on smaller streams that join above there.
Official figures for 2025, for the overflows traced upstream of Lea Hall River Station: 80 spills over 358 hours in total, across all 2.
Each overflow is listed in the stretch above the first gauge its water reaches, from the source down, as on the Gauges tab. A stretch of Aldford Brook includes the smaller streams that join it there.
1 other overflow within 3 km of these gauges is placed below Aldford Brook’s lowest gauge or on another river, so not listed.
A status is the water company’s own monitor: it says whether an overflow is discharging, never how much or why, and a spill does not by itself explain a change in a river level. A status older than two hours is shown as unknown. Annual figures are the official returns: 12/24-hour spills for England and Wales, overflow events for Scotland (Scottish Water counts differently, so the two cannot be compared). “No data” means the monitor produced no usable data that year, not zero. Overflows are placed on OS Open Rivers (edition 2026-04), which leaves out many small channels: an overflow the map cannot place may still drain here.
