The River Dee is a river running through the extreme south east of Cumbria, a part of the Craven region traditionally part of the West Riding of Yorkshire.
The river rises at Dent Head Farm on the Dales Way, formed from several smaller streams emanating from Blea Moor Moss, the River Dee makes its way northward past Stone House to Cowgill, where it turns left into Dentdale. In Dentdale, it picks up the waters of Deepdale Beck, travelling north from Whernside before passing Dent and Gawthrop.
The river later passes Lenacre and Rash on its way to meeting the River Rawthey at Catholes.
