Limy Water at Loveclough

The stream rises on the hillside close to Crown Point in Habergham Eaves near Burnley just east of the Clowbridge Reservoir which it feeds. After exiting the reservoir and crossing the A682 Burnley Road it heads southwest to the Hillside Fishery at Loveclough, where it turns to the south, continuing on to Goodshaw. Continuing past Crawshawbooth, it joins the River Irwell in the centre of Rawtenstall.[2]
